Abstract

Energy harvesting sensor nodes based on real nonvolatile processors are demonstrated to show the desirable characteristics of those systems, such as no battery, zero standby power, microsecond-scale sleep and wake-up time, high resilience to random power failures and fine-grained power management. Furthermore, we show its applications to a distributed moving object detection system, one of novel nonvolatile computing systems.
