'The folding lines mimic the hinge structure of snakeskin'.
Arranging soft battery cells in a snake-like pattern
The new battery could see application across an incredibly diverse range of scenarios, like in disaster or emergencies, or as an upgrade for energy storage technology. And it can also be equipped for other kinds of devices, from everyday wearables to soft robots, according to.
Snake scales may appear rigid, but each scale can fold into the next to guard the entire organism against external attacks or collisions. But most crucially, their structural properties enable a highly stretchable, flexible means of adapting to the surrounding environment. And this was ideal for the KIMM research team, which worked to mature the design for a battery that can stretch without sacrificing stability and performance.
, the new tech allows for flexible movement — by arranging multiple small, hard batteries to form a scale-like structure, according to the release.The KIMM team also worked to ensure the battery's safety by minimizing the deformation in the materials comprising the battery, in addition to an optimized shape used for each battery cell, which granted high capacity per unit size.
