We demonstrate a Self-powered Implantable Drug-delivery (SID ”SEED”) system for the use of human body heat as an energy source. There is a critical need for capabilities that will enable wearable electronics to incorporate self-thermal power from human body heat to solve challenges associated with battery issues such as limited life and recent exploding batteries fears. Magneto-Thermoelectric Generator (MTG) platforms have great potential to provide new approach for SID system. The concept of MTG stems from a radically different technology developed by UCLA/KPU research community for harvesting of thermal energy
The focus of this research to design optimally and characterize performance of fabricated prototype for SID system. The results demonstrate that SID has potential capability for insulin pump.
