Abstract
Energy harvesting is one of the key technologies to realize the IoT (Internet of Things) society. Since it is unrealistic choice to feed power line to all the wireless sensor nodes or replace batteries in them, gathering ambient energy and transducing it into electricity is an important alternative. In these days, more and more researchers around the world are diving into the development race on energy harvesting device technology and autonomous sensor nodes. The United States and the EU are eagerly funding relevant projects for decades and finally the Japan government has found out the importance of energy harvesting technologies. In this lecture, various energy harvesting technologies and their R&D activities including photovoltaic, thermoelectric, electromagnetic, piezoelectric, electrostatic and magnetostrictive as well as future prospects of the technologies are mentioned comprehensively.
