Ilika has developed demonstrators that show its Stereax solid state batteries powering a range of sensors and wireless devices, including:
Perpetual Beacon for Smart Homes:
This demonstrates the ability of the Stereax® M250 solid state battery to power a real device within the Internet of Things. This device is an autonomous sensing device of minimal size which measures temperature data at regular intervals and transmits the data using Bluetooth Low Energy to an app. The app displays temperature information and the battery’s charge state, plus indicates if heating needs to be started or stopped. This very small device replicates sensors for Smart Homes, where the data could also be sent to a hub for automated control.
