Battery-free IoT: this bluetooth-based tag harvests energy from radio waves
The internet of things sounds great, but has huge issues. Ubiquity is one. Battery power is another. Cost of sensors -- and sensing tech to sense the sensors -- is another.
But perhaps ... we're about to solve all the problems.
Wiliot makes a super-smart ARM-based chip with onboard sensors that harvests energy from environmental radio waves to enable battery-free IoT. In this episode of TechFirst with John Koetsier, I interview Stephen Statler, a senior VP at Wiliot.
The chip uses a custom-built operating system operating on nanowatt power and communicates to the cloud via standard Bluetooth…
