Wireless sensors powered by the sun

Solar power makes its entry into the field of network technology with wireless sensors powered by photovoltaic cells. Keeping under control factors like temperature, humidity, and CO2 levels is required to ensure high living standards and energy savings, this will be possible with maintenance and zero energy spending!

We’ve seen how much HVAC systems weigh on our electric bill. Thus, it is becoming more and more urgent to run towards sensors or energy management systems. This time, it was the company SolarPrint to advance its solution. Solar Print is the company that will ride the wave of next-generation solar cells, printable ones.

Solar Print announced the debut of a series of wireless sensors that will work to monitor moisture, CO2 and temperature levels. So sensors can be used to control air quality, such as thermostats or presence sensors, so you can capture how many individuals occupy the room. Perhaps such a sensor will be used to switch the lights on and off so as to automate everything without leaving room for energy waste.

Printable solar cells come into the world of wireless technology and with this application, you will be able to provide efficient and maintenance-free environmental sensors: the need to replace the battery will be eliminated. The presentation of these special wireless sensors took place during the European Energy Harvesting.
