Abstract
Nowadays, wearing a watch is like an essential item for everyone, whether it is to remind people of the time or for accessories. However, watches sold on the market are still using non rechargeable batteries, which could lead to an increase in e-waste as users have to change their watches’s batteries every time they run out of energy. Moreover, if these e-wastes aren’t disposed of properly, they will harm the environment. Therefore, we have decided to create a ZAIS watch, a thermoelectric-powered watch where a thermoelectric generator will be installed within our watch mechanism. Then, it will collect the heat from our body, generate the heat energy to electric energy, and power the watch. Next, the electric energy will be stored in a rechargeable battery that will also be installed in our watch mechanism. This product is made to reduce the cost of changing our watches’ batteries, reduce e-waste, and practice the usage of renewable energy sources in daily appliances. We believe that this innovation would bring a lot of benefits to everyone.
