PROBIOTICS—an Energy Autonomous Miniature Wireless Sensor Mote Interacting with your Phone

Abstract

This multidisciplinary project aims at demonstrating a miniaturized energy-autonomous wireless sensor node that is powered with a 3-segment PV-cell and a solid-state battery. Despite its 5 x 3.4 x 3 mm3 size, it is able to interact with tablets, mobile phones and the cloud while harvesting its own energy.
