The best-known wearable energy-harvesting tech today is, of course, solar, which pulls down electrons from sunlight or ambient light. A light human health sensor would be no use to biologists trying to keep a tracker on a bison for the rest of its life. Solar won’t work for nocturnal animals or creatures in low-light environments.
