What makes heterogeneous smart sensors different? Where and how can they be applied? What is Energy Harvesting? What are its applications?
The constant digital evolution of Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is generating a technological ecosystem where each worker must handle new digital or digitised tools to develop their professional activity and interact with the digital factory, ensuring their safety and that of the industrial environments in which they operate.
This implies a greater amount of new digital tools that workers must manage and manipulate, making their work increasingly mobile and delocalised in any point of the factory.
This generates the need to transform the traditional instruments of specific measurement of the working environment into mobile elements that guarantee the health and safety of workers. The incorporation into professional clothing of older and better safety measures and quality of the environment are the optimal solutions to this problem, where we move from an intermittent detection of parameters to a continuous detection or low demand depending on the needs.
Energy Harvesting technologies reduce power consumption in sensors, communication and transmission systems, components and electronic devices. It must be taken into account that monitoring devices are required to have unlimited electrical power and not to replace their batteries due to economic and environmental issues.
Energy Harvesting is the process by which energy dissipated to the environment is captured for transformation into electrical energy, which can then be used to supply electronic devices or stored for later use.
