Published purpose

Currently, Nanoprecise has a sensor called RotationLF, which runs on battery, that lasts anywhere from 0.5 - 3 years depending on the number of uploads per day. This limits the use cases for our present sensor. We would like to harvest energy from vibrations and temperature fluctuations to be able to make its battery last above 5 years. For this, we need a 3rd party energy harvesting source like Revibe (datasheet attached) to feed its output to e-peas microcontroller AEM30940 (datasheet attached). We need to add following new elements to our existing sensor to harvest energy continuosly: here will be three additional modules for this to work. 1. Energy Harvester (Revibe) 2. Microcontroller 3. Supercapacitor
