A super-small, implantable cardiac device that gets its power from radio waves transmitted from outside the body has been developed by a team of engineers. The implanted device is contained by engineers from Stanford in a cube just eight-tenths of a millimetre in radius. It could fit on the head of pin. In their paper, the researchers demonstrated wireless power transfer to a millimetre-sized device implanted five centimetres inside the chest on the ...Sunday, 2 September 2012
Scientists Develop Wirelessly Powered Cardiac Device
