Development of Sensor Modules featuring Industry’s Smallest Micro-Vibration Power Generators
In a collaborative effort among Asahi Glass (AGC), OMRON, Konishiyasu Co. and THHINK Wireless Technologies JAPAN LTD, AGC has announced the development of sensor modules which are equipped with world’s smallest micro-vibration power generation. The new sensor technology would eliminate any needs for wiring to supply electric power to the sensor unit as well as any needs for battery replacement and other type of maintenance issues, due to the fact that the new sensor’s power requirement is generated through its small-sized power generator based on micro-vibration power generation converting small vibration into electrical energy.
