Self-Powered Wireless Sensor Networks Eliminate Battery Maintenance
Source: Power Electronics
MicroStrain Inc, a Williston, Vt.- based producer of wireless sensing instruments,
including microprocessor-based, multichannel, programmable transmitters, has a vision.
The researchers there are looking at new ways of extracting energy from the environment and
converting it into power for sensing devices. In fact, to dramatically increase the life span
of wireless sensors, engineers at MicroStrain are exploring unique methods to harvest energy
from the environment to power directly wireless sensors without using the conventional
batteries or traditional wired source. In turn, this will create self-powered wireless
sensing networks that can eliminate the tedious task of replacing conventional batteries,
while giving them infinite life span. Click Power Electronics link above to read on...
