Drayson Technologies has just introduced a new technology that will make “going green” easier than ever. A new revolutionary energy harvesting technology was developed that is said to provide “Perpetual Power for Low Energy Internet of Things (LE-IoT) devices”. This one impresses by converting ambient radio frequency waves into real, usable electricity for low power electronic devices.
Freevolt is a solution to the “problem of harvesting usable energy from a small RF signal” as described by Lord Drayson himself. As Chairmain and CEO of Drayson Technologies, Mr. Drayson is proud of this Freevolt. Technology was recently pantented so know that you can’t easily copy this one. However, Freevolt is available for license commercially especially to the international business and developer communities.
What does the Freevolt do exactly? It harvests “usable energy from a small RF signal” or any wireless or broadcast network like 2G, 3G, 4G, WiFi & Digital TV. It’s actually a multi-band antenna that can absorb energy from different RF bands. The small and lightweight form makes it possible to use for smaller ‘Internet of Things’ devices.
This Freevolt is expected to be used in many other fields. It has a number of possible applications but the first ever commercial one is the CleanSpace Tag air sensor. The idea is to use Freevolt into a number of industrial or urban architecture for a future that is purely connected even over a wireless network. The result is a “crowd-sourced network of personal air sensors” according to Drayson. It should be ready in the United Kingdom first before coming to other cities around the world.
Simply put, Freevolt will harvest all unused wireless energy and transform it collectively into something useful for those low energy devices. With Freevolt, nothing will be left unused.
