AlgaTime
Product DesignAlgae have been powering life for billions of years. Now is the time to let the power your watch too
AlgaTime is a revolutionary wristwatch that utilises living algae as a sustainable power source, eliminating the need for traditional batteries, reducing waste and reliance on non-renewables.
This speculative design gives a biomimetic vector to wearable tech, based on the work of C. Howe and P. Bombelli at the University of Cambridge, who powered a microprocessor by blue-green algae, ambient light and water.
AlgaTime disrupts the tech industry's dependence on unsustainable batteries while being a wearable reminder of our ability to create a sustainable future.
