Experimental study on practical applications of wearable thermoelectric generator (TEG)

This study aims to investigate the potential applications that can be used for TEG devices. The application that has been used in this project is to light up the LED light bulb by harvesting human body heat using TEG Peltier Module, and the selected and tested human body part is the forehead. Severa...
