InPlay Inc., a fabless semiconductor company focused on developing cutting-edge low-power wireless communication technologies for the Industrial IoT market, has partnered with Energous Corporation (NASDAQ: WATT), an industry leader in RF-based wireless power network solutions, to demonstrate a battery-free temperature and humidity IoT sensor solution. With this invention, Energous’ PowerBridge technology and InPlay’s cutting-edge Bluetooth low-energy beacon system combine their capabilities. Within the Industrial IoT ecosystem, which is where Energous is presently concentrating its efforts, this solution has the potential to grow into a number of markets. With this joint effort, we hope to provide these sectors with a dependable, affordable, and energy-efficient sensor solution.
“As IoT grows, particularly in industrial applications, it becomes clear that expensive sensor retrofit solutions are necessary. We can dramatically lower total costs and aid in the deployment of sensors on a much broader scale by doing away with cables, disposable batteries, and maintenance costs, said Cesar Johnston, CEO of Energous. Our PowerBridge technology provides steady power to several devices at once, increasing design freedom, enabling waterproofing, and resolving power-related issues.
According to Jason Wu, CEO of InPlay, “Energous PowerBridge technology enables wireless power transmission with minimal size, maximum power, and cost efficiency.” “By offering an ultra-low-cost, low-power, and a programming free design, our InPlay NanoBeacon SoC solution benefits wireless sensors customers and allows manufacturers to reduce development costs and achieve a shorter time to market.”
