Harvesting Ambient Energy Has been going on for many decades – hydro-electric, solar, geothermal, wind hydro electric solar geothermal wind More recently… – fluctuations of magnetic field – vibrations on machinery body of aircraft vibrations on machinery, body of aircraft – pressure or linear motion of pushing button – strain on structures t i t t – waves in ocean
Harvesting Ambient Energy Yet to come… – the radio waves that fill the air the radio waves that fill the air – ever-present environmental gradients such as changes in temperature h i t t
