The Stripe battery, which is said to bend and conform as freely as a fibre, is a 0.3mm thick device aimed at a broad range of wearable electronics devices. It contains multiple elements developed independently by the company’s SDI group and is said to offer higher energy density by minimising the width of the battery sealing.
The Band battery, meanwhile, is aimed at smartwatch straps and can withstand being bent and unbent more than 50,000 times.
However, the company has not provided any indication of the performance that might be available from either battery.
