CPS seminar: Micro-scale Energy Harvesting for Autonomous Wireless Devices - Event

Event details

Abstract: Wireless sensors form the leaf nodes of Internet of Things (IoT) each contributing small amounts of data useful for big data analytics. It is impractical to power a few trillion of these sensors in the field with batteries or wired sources making micro-level energy harvesting a critical aspect to the success of IoT. Arm and the University of Southampton have focussed on research with the aim of identifying implications of integrated micro-scale energy harvesting on sensor systems. This talk highlights some of the issues specifically at the energy harvester and system boundary that can be detrimental to wide deployability of IoT. Some of the solutions explored in this context as part of the ARM-ECS PhD research will also be shared.
