Project SESAM (2009-2012)

"Smart multi-source Energy Scavenger for Autonomous Microsystems"

 

Grant : ANR- 08-SEGI-019

Project goals

Global objectives:

Elaboration of an energy harvester system able to power multiple loads and dealing with  various energy sources

• Design of a dedicated IC for optimal power management
• Association of  two types of transduction (piezoelectric and electrostatic) for the vibration energy harvester (VEH)
• Other energy sources: PV cells and thermoelements "on the shelf"

Main ESIEE Paris objectives:

• Design and fabrication of a silicon-based optimized electrostatic VEH (in collaboration with the LIP6 lab)
• Design and fabrication of a silicon-based VEH that associates piezoelectric and electrostatic transduction (in collaboration with the TIMA labs and the LIP6)
