| 摘要 |
Apparatus is described for use with (a) a muscle of a subject's body and (b) an implanted functional device in the subject's body. An electrode is coupled to the muscle. A stimulator causes the muscle to undergo movement by driving a current into the muscle, via the electrode. An energy assembly including a flywheel and an energy converter, stores energy associated with the movement of the muscle. The energy assembly powers the stimulator and powers the implanted functional device, based on the movement of the muscle. Other embodiments are also described.
