چکیده
Biomedical implanted sensors will benefit greatly from energy harvesting power sources. Although promising devices have been proposed, system complexity and low power levels have been preventing integration into biomedical wireless sensors. We have proposed a simplified architecture which addresses these critical drawbacks. Here we report a wireless node with increased range (1 meter range) and reduced priming requirements (1 volt range), by the use of improved fabrication techniques. Voltage inputs from passive sensors are amplified using energy from device motion, and the motion also provides switching for signal sampling and pulse transmission.

Approaches to self-powered biochemical sensors for in-vivo applications
The requirement for electrical power is a major limitation in the development of biosensors for in-body applications. This paper considers motion powered energy harvesting devices for in-body use, showing that power levels are unlikely to exceed a few microwatts for devices of acceptable size. As a low power sensor, we are developing pH detectors based on metal-metal oxide electrodes, such as i...
