BTU, or British thermal unit, per person mile is a measure of energy used to move a person a mile.

Like any electronic device, sensors need energy to operate. Until now this has largely been solved by hooking them up to the grid

But what if sensors could harness energy directly from their environment from the sun, from ambient heat, from radio waves or vibrations?

What is needed are networks of devices that can survive by scavenging the energy they need from the environment."

The researchers are also developing intelligent algorithms (small programs) to efficiently manage the energy obtained from the environment.

and the SWAP coordinator at CTTC in Spain, says the design of energetically self-sufficient networks differs sharply from that of standard battery-powered ones. he goal is no longer to minimise energy draw so as to maximise the lifetime of the battery reserve,
