Table 2. Comparison of power management technologies for wearable and implanTable applications

Device type Applicability Rationale
Battery Wearable High energy density and sTable output.Repeated surgical interventions required for battery replacement.Limited long-term safety due to electrolyte leakage.
PV Wearable High energy density under sufficient light illumination.Strong dependence on light exposure.
BFC Wearable & Implantable Continuous power generation from body fluids.
TEG Wearable Continuous power generation from the temperature gradient between the body and the environment.Low power density due to limited temperature gradient when implanted.
PENG Wearable & Implantable Power generation from mechanical stimuli, such as heartbeat, breathing, and muscle contraction-relaxation.
TENG Wearable & Implantable High output voltage through contact electrification and electrostatic induction.
WPT Wearable & Implantable Long-term, battery-free wireless power transfer.
