The Story Of The Day!
a few tidbits:
The time seemed perfect—perhaps even overdue!—for a bra that could harness the untapped power of breast motion.
It turns out that the physics of breast motion have been studied closely for the last two decades by a gamut of researchers,
"Let's face it—if you're a double-A marathoner, you're probably not going to get that iPod up and running," Lawson said. Measurements compiled by Lawson and her colleagues show that a D-cup in a low-support bra can travel as much as 35 inches up and down (35 inches!) during exercise, while a B-cup in a high-support bra barely moves an inch.
An encapsulation design further reduces motion because two smaller masses are easier to control than one large one. "Also, if you have a really high neckline, the breasts won't fly up," Lawson said. So I was in the market for an elastic, compression-style bra with a low neckline.
A square meter of fiber produces about 80 milliwatts of power, which is enough to run a small device like a cell phone.
Many bra patterns call for about a meter of fabric, which would probably mean that a regular bra would have enough energy to power an iPod
ain't science grand !?!?
