With all this sitting at home non-socializing going on,
I'm becoming the idea guy.
Previous employment with with a cardiograph manufacturer
got me to thinking "hmmmm, why not take a normal set of glasses,
install solar panel lenses, and run some wires down to the chest
area. Constant charging with any bright light sourcing.
Today's wafer technology in recharging circuits for Lion batteries
is so small, it easily fits into 1 SSOIC/SSOT 6 pin package and a few
smaller discrete devices, an area smaller than your pinky fingernail,
perhaps .25" square by .015".
Now that I let the idea fly, Medtronic's probably starts a new business unit
next week.
Damn!
Remember, you read it here first.
Anyway, good luck with the procedure, and best wishes for an
uneventful routine.
