The Japanese company NEC has developed a lightweight, flexible battery (see photo), which is less than a millimeter thick and can be charged in half a minute.
The novelty is called "Organic Based Battery" (Organic Radical Battery, ORB) and contains a certain type of plastic that exists in the form of a gel. This gel allows the battery to be extremely flexible, with a thickness of only 300 microns.

An ORB can be embedded in devices such as smart cards, laptop computers, and smart paper. In addition, the absence of harmful chemical compounds in the battery makes it environmentally friendly.

Miniature radio frequency identification tags (Radio-Frequency Identification Tags, RFID), long used to track the movement of supplies and stocks, in recent times have become increasingly used for labeling consumer goods. Advocates of private information claim that the devices pose a threat to those who "carry" them, often unaware of it.

Americans living in states bordering on Canada or Mexico already receive a driver's license that can be read remotely. For the introduction of such documents designed to identify US citizens crossing the border of the country, advocate the Department of Homeland Security. But those who are concerned about the security and integrity of the personal sphere should think twice before receiving such an identifier.


The average consumer may not suspect how many RFID tags he has with him. They are integrated into personal items and even into some garments.

Computers in recent years have become an integral part of our lives. We entrust them with more and more work in all areas. However, having taught a computer with commendable speed to process and securely store data, we have not yet solved the problem of collecting and entering information output into a computer control system by any process - be it production, trade, transportation, etc.

There are not so many technologies that bring with them drastic changes. RFID-systems are used in a variety of cases where you need to quickly and accurately control, track and account for the numerous movements of various objects.

Radio frequency recognition is carried out using special tags attached to the object, carrying identification and other information.
