Abstract :
Recent advances in energy scavenging technology pave the way for the design of Wireless Autonomous Transducer Systems (WATS) with a power envelope of up to 100 uW. At IMEC we are working on a set of new technologies that will enable the design of a new class of applications that run on such autonomous transducer systems. Especially the field of health- and bio-monitoring on ECG or EEG signal looks particularly promising for such autonomous sensor nodes.
