Energy harvesting becomes reality with AdaptivEnergy's wireless, remote sensing solution based on TI ultra-low power technology
AdaptivEnergy has developed a demonstration kit using Joule-ThiefTM
technology to harvest energy and power the MSP430 microcontroller and
RF technology to collect data, control the operation of a system or send
sensed data to central collection sites. The Joule-Thief energy harvesting
device is based on AdaptivEnergy's Ruggedized Laminated Piezo (RLP®)
technology, which enables compact energy harvesting modules to power
applications such as wireless sensors. These wireless sensors could be
used to gather ambient intelligence to detect and report critical conditions
in factories, automobiles, office buildings, homes and other environments
- all without wiring or batteries. Learn more. |
