Skynet Cometh
Engadget reports on a clock that runs on energy derived from digesting insects that it captures. They incidentally mention a Japanese project that worked on fuel cells that run on blood. The intended use was for embedded medical technology (think pacemakers) where the concept of a non-toxic fuel cell that runs on you makes a lot of sense, but I can’t help thinking of that terrible war of the worlds remake with Tom Cruise where the tripods go around harvesting people to fill their tanks full of blood.
Creepy huh? At least Skynet was solar powered.
