Batteries can be soft.

The linear lithium battery is definitely an epoch-making product. Previous studies on "soft batteries (also called soft batteries)" have had certain results, but because of the use of "secondary products" such as high molecular polymers, energy density is very high. Low, and the softness is seriously insufficient (just like plastic). The performance of a linear lithium battery is exactly the same as that of a normal lithium battery, but it has the same physical characteristics as a wire, and the advantages are not to be said. As for battery life, this is of course related to length. According to LG's test, a 25 cm long linear lithium battery can power the iPodShuffle for 10 hours. LG said that it hopes that the linear lithium battery can be popularized in popular equipment in 2017.

The importance of batteries in the development of computers has been neglected. We can build transistors the size of just a few atoms, processors the power of which is only a few watts, and we can handle a billion tasks per second, but the batteries we use are never that big, they don't change shape. The backwardness of batteries limits the innovation and development of the computer industry. If linear batteries can help humans break through the original imprisonment, the electronic products on our hands will be changed. Notebooks can throw away the round batteries, and mobile phones and tablets can be liberated from the panels. We can plug the battery into the extra space inside the device, and even convert the battery into a decorative or shell. The size of the device will be greatly reduced, and the weight of the device will be greatly optimized. We can also make battery bracelets and battery necklaces for charging anywhere. Combined with the development of soft displays, we can even make soft phones and computers, and the IT world is about to change.
