Many IoT devices run on batteries for obvious reasons (remote and mobile location, critical enough to not rely on grid power only, you name it). But batteries have shortcomings: they have a limited lifespan, you need to constantly minimize energy consumption, hence reducing what can be done, which limits the hardware choices as well...More and more IoT devices manufacturers are considering and adopting energy harvesting solutions such as solar, allowing their devices to generate energy from their environment. This is known as Ambient IoT.It's becoming even more important to consider energy production and consumption holistically (tech, cost, AI, ...), it is a system problem, not a component one. And for that you need the right tools.With Jeff Crystal from Voltaic and Björn Rosqvist from Qoitch we delve into the fascinating new world of ambient IoT, discussing considerations, pitfalls, tooling, and more.🔗 Learn more at https://www.qoitech.com/ and https://voltaicsystems.com/🙏 This episode is powered by IoT Stars https://iotstars.com
