| Energy harvesting (13) |  |
#Smart sensors that harvest power from sun heat or vibrations European researchers have developed advanced energy harvesting technology that allows wireless sensor networks to power themselves from the sun, heat or vibrations.
They are focusing on making energy harvesters more efficient and are integrating multiple energy harvesting and sensing circuitry into individual devices.
The researchers are also developing intelligent algorithms (small programs) to efficiently manage the energy obtained from the environment.
sees such efficient energy harvesting systems playing a crucial role in the Internet of things, the concept that in the future myriad different devices,
Its energy harvesting capabilities come courtesy of a metamaterial a synthetic material engineered with characteristics not found in nature like the ability to bend light the wrong way
and charge the sensor's power supplyhe image sensor continuously toggles between image capture and power harvesting modes.
"This results in a significant reduction of the energy harvesting surface footprint. Real estate is a precious commodity for energy absorption
they have energy harvesting capabilities, and engineers can periodically wake them up to get fresh readings from the sensors and check for any changes.
#More than 80%Efficiency Attained in New Ultralow-power Circuit Researchers at MIT developed a new ultralow-power circuit that improves efficiency of energy harvesting to more than 80 percent.
