New scavenger technology allows robots to 'eat' metal for energy. This type of energy source could be the basis for a new paradigm in robotics, where machines keep themselves powered by seeking out and "eating" metal, breaking down its chemical bonds for energy like humans do with food.

A photovoltaic cell that works at night: "A regular solar cell generates power by absorbing sunlight, which causes a voltage to appear across the device and for current to flow. In these, light is emitted instead and the current and voltage go in the opposite direction, but you still generate power"
