NEC has announced an ultra-thin and flexible quick charge battery called ORB that is also environmentally friendly. The ORB (the Organic Radical Battery) has a thickness of 0.3mm – andc can be recharged in about 30 seconds.
We can see this technoilogy in a multitude of handy things. NEC confuses us by saying:
NEC anticipates that its new and unique battery will be used
extensively in the future to power all kinds of tiny ubiquitous
terminals. The interconnection of networks with battery-powered next
generation ubiquitous devices will enable all kinds of objects to
become terminals, bringing us closer to a ubiquitous networked society
by allowing access to the network anytime, anywhere.
What’s a ‘ubiquitous terminal’, again?
