Powering from ambient energies various electric accessories on bicycles like lamps, on-board computer, communication devices, or even wireless sensor nodes will avoid the use of batteries and improves the availability of these devices when the bicycle is not used for a long time. This paper reports on vibration resources detected in a bicycle as a potential energy source for supplying these on-board...
With the rapid development of low power consumption electronics, wireless sensor networks (WSN) are highly investigated and used to improve our life quality. Using piezoelectric materials to transfer the mechanical energy into electrical energy for batteries of WSN in order to extend the life time is the focus in many researches in the recent years. It is important and efficient to improve the energy...
We present the design of the Tempo mote that operates on ambient energy harvested from the environment. Equipped with a ultra low-power timing module that acquires Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) information from a longrange radio transmitter, Tempo can persistently access the global time and is thereby resilient to power outages. A prototype implementation of the Tempo mote shows that it achieves...
