Researchers discover battery-free technology that harvests power from radio and Wi-Fi signals for low-powered devices
Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have found a new type of energy harvesting module which extracts energy from radio frequencies (RF).Typically called ‘waste energy’, these modules convert the RF signals into DC voltage which can be used by low-powered devices. The radio frequency energy harvesting modules could reduce the dependency on batteries […]
