 Peltier-Seebeck effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Peltier-Seebeck and Thomson effects are reversible; Joule heating is not, and cannot be, under the laws of thermodynamics.
The Peltier-Seebeck effect, or thermoelectric effect, is the direct conversion of heat differentials to electric voltage and vice versa.
The Seebeck effect is actually a combination of the Peltier and Thomson effects.

 Troubled Times: Limited Use
The Peltier effect is also the inverse of the Seebeck effect in which a current is produced in a closed circuit of two dissimilar metals if the junction is maintained at different temperatures, as in thermocouples for measuring temperature.
Peltier Junctions work by the Peltier effect (hence their name) which involves heating or cooling of the junction of two thermoelectric materials by passing a current through the junction.
There is a professor at Kansas State University that uses Peltier junctions to stabilize the temperatures of his laser electronics.

 Seebeck Effect Curiosity
I had read about the Seebeck effect long ago, and was not under the impression that it provided much electrical energy.
Peltier junctions used to be rather rare, used only to cool some exotic telecommunications and ultra-sensitive amplifier circuitry to reduce electrical noise.
In conjunction with a storage battery or capacitor, a solar collector, and a heatsink, a Peltier array could be capable of providing a source of electrical power for a low-current device such as a weather station or data logger.

 History
Thermoelectric generators are solid-state power sources that utilize the Seebeck effect, while thermoelectric coolers are solid-state heat pumps utilizing the Peltier effect.
Today, this is known as the Seebeck effect.
Seebeck initially believed this was due to magnetism induced by the temperature difference.

This occurred in the United States throughout the 19th century as the official bimetallic standard became in effect a silver standard.
This monetary system is very unstable: due to the fluctuation of the commercial value of the metals, the metal with a commercial value higher than the currency value tends to be used as metal and is withdrawn from circulation as money (Gresham's Law).
In the United States, toward the end of the nineteenth century, bimetallism became a center of political conflict.

 Halfbakery: Implanted Electronics
I suspect that you intended to employ the Seebeck Effect which is the flip side of the Peltier Effect (see link).
The device would ideally be powered by thermal generators operating on a principle known as the Seebeck-Peltier effect, utilizing the human's body heat as the source.
If the peltier effect isnt upto powering such electronics, perhaps its time to develop in-body powerplants which would deliver the power "body-wide" by way of ultra-thin electrical cabling.

 The Peltier effect
The Peltier effect is caused by the fact that an electric current is accompanied by a heat current in a homogeneous conductor even at constant temperature.
Contrary to Joule heating, the Peltier effect is reversible and depends on the direction of the current.
Nevertheless, an independent explanation of the Seebeck effect is desirable.

 The Seebeck effect
This thermoelectric effect was discovered in 1821 by the physicist Thomas Johann Seebeck, and has a twin function that works in the opposite direction called the peltier effect.
The seebeck effect occurs when you take any two members of the thermoelectric series and connect wires made of them to form a circuit with two junctions.
There have been generators made by the russians that use this process to produce enough current from the heaters to power a transistor radio.

"The disadvantage of the Peltier Effect refrigerator is that it's not very powerful, nor is it very efficient, but it is very reliable, because it has no moving parts." (http://www.abc.net.au/science/k2/homework/s95611.htm)

A peltier is basically a heat pump that relies on the Peltier-Seebeck effect (well, the Peltier effect, but they're the same thing with cause and effect switched around).
The Seebeck effect is somewhat easier to explain, so I'll start with it.
The downside to a peltier unit is twofold: you're dumping more heat into the system in the end, and you're consuming an awful lot of power (peltier coolers are quite power-hungry).
