The need

Oil and gas, cement, iron and steel industries are all highly intensive in energy consumption. What’s more, up to 65% of this energy is lost in waste heat in the heat conversion process. This increases their C02 and greenhouse gas emissions. 

The solution

A battery-free internet of things (IoT) device comprised of hardware and software boosting productivity. The wireless, zero-maintenance device is based on a thermal converter and adaptable to any hot surface. It can produce from a few mW to up to 700mW of power generation (50oC – 180oC) and is suitable for different wireless long-range protocols. It has up to to 64 sensors: vibration, temperature and ultrasound.

The value proposition

  • Drastically reduces the costs of industrial monitoring.
  • Estimated operative life of over 20 years.
  • Flexible and plug and play.
  • Maintenance free.
  • Real time wireless.
  • Edge computing IoT device based on a system on a chip (SoC).
