New smartwatch powered by movement
 

Which means it would be useless for us

Boffins have emerged from their smoke-filled laps with a new smartwatch which is powered by movement.

The PowerWatch is being used by Matrix Industries as a proof of concept for its thermoelectric generator technology. They say they have made it small and efficient enough to incorporate into a device as compact as a watch.

The PowerWatch needs nothing more than for you to wear it and is a bit like those self-winding watches which for some explicable reason always managed to stop – probably because we didn’t move much.
