Sensor Converge 2025 – Beyond Batteries: Powering the Next Generation of Sensors

As billions of connected devices come online, batteries are quickly becoming the weakest link in scaling sensor-driven systems. Maintenance costs, limited lifespans, and environmental impact are pushing the industry toward energy harvesting and wireless power solutions. This panel will explore the state of battery-free sensing, real-world deployments, and the technologies enabling sensors to operate indefinitely.Industry leaders and innovators will discuss:Breakthroughs in energy harvesting (light, vibration, RF, thermal) and wireless power transfer How batteryless sensors are transforming industrial IoT, smart cities, healthcare, and logistics Design trade-offs in ultra-low-power electronics, sensor fusion, and edge AI The path to scalable, sustainable sensing ecosystems without battery maintenance or replacement.
