Innovative energy-saving chip to be introduced in the coming days, will be able to help people with cochlear implants get rid of the parts wearable on the ear. New technology will make it easier use of medical devices designed to compensate hearing loss. Existing cochlear implants use small batteries similar to those used in watches. These batteries must be recharged. or replacement. The new chip is powered by a battery that charges on air for two minutes and works about eight hours without recharging, reports the news resource Gigaom. The idea is to use a phone with an adapter for charging cochlear implant. This eliminates the need for a permanent connection to networks, ”says Ananta Chandrakasan, professor of electrical engineering from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
