The electrophorus is thus actually a manually operated electrostatic generator, using the same principle of electrostatic induction as electrostatic machines such as the Wimshurst machine and the Van de Graaff generator.

In 1865 Holtz invented the " Holtz electrostatic influence machine ", an electrostatic induction generator that converted mechanical work into electrostatic energy, needing only an initial charge to begin operation.

This model of an electrostatic induction generator, very much in vogue for electromedical purposes towards the end of the nineteenth century, is based on the principles of electrophorus and duplicator function.

This electrostatic induction process can give an output voltage / current signal if the distance separating between the touching skin and the bottom PDMS is appreciably comparable to the size of the PDMS film.
15.
The effect is similar to pyroelectric fusion but instead of pyroelectric crystals stripping the electrons from hydrogen atoms it is a high voltage induced electromagnetic field of coils and electrostatic induction of the ionized gas.
16.
The charges are produced by electrostatic induction in the wedges of tinfoil pasted on the rotating glass discs . a 1903 encyclopedia explains it in some detail and says the discs might be made out of rubber.
17.
For example, charged regions on the surfaces of styrofoam cups or bags can induce potential on nearby ESD sensitive components via electrostatic induction and an ESD event may occur if the component is touched with a metallic tool.

:: : If I remember correctly, it's called electrostatic induction . ( Just giving a name to Philip's explanation )-- talk ) 13 : 57, 13 February 2009 ( UTC)

Peltier also introduced the concept of electrostatic induction ( 1840 ), based on the modification of the distribution of electric charge in a material under the influence of a second object closest to it and its own electrical charge.
20.
However, " wireless " included a broad variety of related electronic technologies, including electrostatic induction, electromagnetic induction and aquatic and earth conduction, so there was a need for a more precise term referring exclusively to electromagnetic radiation.
