The versatile Pedot polymer was also recently discovered to be capable of transforming standard house bricks into energy storage units, due to its ability to penetrate porous materials and conduct electricity.
Hell I find this way more intriguing than the stupid bullshit cyborg hype. The real story here is that medical implants will become more reliable not that we are going to create a cyborg in our lifetimes.
But this brick as a battery thing would solve a shit ton of environmental issues w/ current electrical storage, way bigger IMO.
Don't get to excited, end of the brick story states this is all lab work and hypothesis and nowhere near ready for commercialization. This will probably end being a tech that gets bought, patented and shelved to protect the current racket.

Are you saying,that I could coat my small brick house with this polymer,put a couple solar panels on top and be energy independent ?
Read the story and click the link, that is literally what they are saying and have a graphic of that precise concept lol.
Cool.Thanks.

My thought also.
