The EnerChip Solid-State Battery
The EnerChip solid-state battery is a, “battery-on-a-chip” thin film battery that can provide back-up power ranging from a few hours to several weeks depending on the stand-by current requirements of the system. Steven Grady, VP of Marketing for the Cymbet Corporation gives us an overview of the technology.

EnerChip Applications
The EnerChip solid-state battery can be used to store energy from ambient sources, like vibration, solar and heat, creating zero-power devices. Steven Grady, VP of Marketing for the Cymbet Corporation shows us a few examples of this technology in use.

The MSP430 Ultra-Low-Power MCU
One of Texas Instruments product lines is dedicated to ultra-low-power applications. At the heart of those applications is the MSP430 processor allowing engineers to design radio and other applications from harvested energy. Adrian Valenzuele, a Product Marketing Engineer at TI shows us the technology and some applications.

The Batteryless Remote Control
Arveni is a European company that has developed a system remote that is powered by the ambient energy the user applies to the buttons on the remote control. While the technology is still being proto-typed, we got an exclusive look at the worlds only batteryless remote control.
