Skin-tenna - wireless antenna (Signals along human skin). According to NewScientist, A wireless antenna that channels signals along human skin could broadcast signals over your body to connect up medical implants or portable gadgets. By taking advantage of the “creeping wave” effect that allows waves to travel along a surface, due to mismatches between the air and the surface, the “skin-tenna” allows wireless devices to communicate more efficiently with devices anywhere on the body. Signals are channelled out sideways along the skin by this reflection and the conducting plate. That makes the antenna more efficient, which could double the battery life of body-worn gadgets.
