Omomyid writes "In the seminal science fiction book "Dune" Frank Herbert envisioned the Fremen collecting water from the air via moisture traps and dew collectors. Via Science Daily, scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Interfacial Engineering and Biotechnology IGB in Stuttgart and Logos Innovationen have developed a closed-loop and self-sustained method (no external power required) for teasing the humidity out of desert air and into potable water."
