Creepy or cool? Charge your mobile with blood

Could it get creepier? A student has come up with a non-conventional device, which sounds somewhat weird once you get the details. 
 
Naomi has created a mobile phone charger that uses human blood to charge a device. So, if you want to use her technology, all you need is 'an arm with a vein', reports Cosmopolitan magazine. 
 
The device comes with a line that is known as 'Energy Addicts'. It has three parts - the Blinker, the E-pulse, and the Blood Bridge. Each part functions to extract energy from different parts of the body. For example, the Blinker extracts energy from from the eyelids, the E-pulse Conductor extracts from spinal cord nerves, and the Blood Bridge from lower-arm blood flow, says the magazine.
 
Naomi told the magazine that she doesn't want the device to be mass produced. She created it so that people can ponder over the relationship between human bodies and technology. 
 
Naomi is not the first person to use a human body's energy as a source of power. Earlier this year, a thermoelectric bracelet was released that had the ability to turn body heat into electricity.
