IoT came as a hype topic about 5-years ago in the technical publications. Trillions of connected devices were expected to be deployed starting in 2019.

Why are we not already seeing the beginning of its predicted use, What is delaying it from happening?

The answer lies in the power source. Connected devices (mostly remote sensors ) require regular battery replacement. The economic repercussion of these disposable batteries has become a barrier for massive deployment of IoT devices. Energy harvesting will change the future of IoT business.

Come and hear how you in several ways can increase the battery life time in your IoT projects.
