Sažetak
Low-level ambient energy, gathered and converted into electrical energy using energy harvesting, can be used to power miniaturized devices such as sensors, wearable electronics and Internet-of-Things components. Kinetic energy, due to its presence in all moving systems, is of special interest in wearable technology applications. The replacement of batteries with innovative energy harvesting devices (e.g. piezoelectric or electromagnetic) can result in mass and size reduction, favoring ever-increasing miniaturization of wearable devices, as well as drastically increasing their autonomy. Innovative miniaturized broadband wrist-worn kinetic energy harvesting solutions, primarily aimed for powering ultra-low power devices for medical applications (e.g. telemedicine, drug delivery and health monitoring), are proposed in this work.
