the surroundings and the wearer鈥檚 arm. According to its designers, it starts to
generate electricity as soon as it is put on the wrist and continues to operate
and keep perfect time in 鈥渟leep mode鈥 when taken off. The generator uses the
principle of the Seebeck effect, in which a temperature difference between a
