Powercast to sponsor Sensors Expo 2009 Energy Harvesting Pavilion
The Sensors Expo & Conference, the leading event on sensing technologies and solutions, recently announced some highlights for the 2009 event that will take place from June 8-10 in Rosemont, IL (USA).
A new area for the 2009 event is the Energy Harvesting and Power Management Pavilion. Powercast is a sponsor of this new area of the show floor that will provide energy harvesting and power management solutions capable of capturing, converting, storing, and delivering energy in a form that can be used to provide the power needed by the system it serves. Powercast will be showcasing RF energy harvesting and wireless power technology with specific application focus for wireless sensors.
RF-based wireless power can be used to recharge batteries in sensors, or to enable battery-free wireless sensors that can be deployed in commercial buildings and industrial facilities. Some unique applications of RF-based wireless power include the ability to power sensors over distance, behind walls, in low-light areas, or extreme cold or hot temperature environments.
