<span>Energy sources differ throughout the world-, as do the costs of acquiring those sources. Electric energy has become an important element in our daily lives, especially for those devices that cannot be eliminated due to necessity. The usage of mobile phones has become an important element of our lives and their battery consumption is increasing due to the installation of a variety of Android applications. Electricity is required to charge the battery of the mobile phone; however, and at times, while travelling in a remote area there might not be access to electricity. Thus, the mobile would not be able to recharged. This paper presents the idea to design a mobile charging system using thermoelectricity. The thermal energy from the human body has been utilized to generate the electric power needed for the mobile charging process. To do this, a Peltier circuit device is connected to the human body. The difference in temperature between the human body and the atmosphere generates the voltage at the output of the Peltier circuit. The output from the Peltier circuit is then given to the boost converter and amplified to generate 5 volts which in turn are used to charge the mobile.</span>

In the present study we link self-report-data on personality to behavior recorded on the mobile phone. This new approach from Psychoinformatics collects data from humans in everyday life. It demonstrates the fruitful collaboration between psychology and computer science, combining Big Data with psychological variables. Given the large number of variables, which can be tracked on a smartphone, the present study focuses on the traditional features of mobile phones – namely incoming and outgoing calls and SMS. We observed N = 49 participants with respect to the telephone/SMS usage via our custom developed mobile phone app for 5 weeks. Extraversion was positively associated with nearly all related telephone call variables. In particular, Extraverts directly reach out to their social network via voice calls.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of prestige sensitivity on mobile phone customer’s price acceptance in Vietnam and the mediating role of product knowledge and price mavenism on this relationship. We used the convenience sampling method for data collection via questionnaires with a sample of 605 consumers who purchased mobile phones. The collected data was analysed by applying a structural equation modelling method. The result indicates that prestige sensitivity has both direct and indirect effects on price acceptance via product knowledge and price mavenism. The findings suggest that prestige sensitivity can be used as a market segmentation criterion for mobile phones when making price decisions and providing customers with adequate information could improve price acceptance.
