Minew announced the upcoming launch of its battery-free asset tracker, which leverages advanced energy-harvesting technologies. It i scheduled for release at the end of the year, and is designed to be self-sustaining.

“Today, we mark a new era in asset tracking with our revolutionary credit card-sized device, unburdened by batteries. It redefines asset monitoring, making it seamless and sustainable,” said Shain, product director at Minew.

The battery-free asset tracker incorporates an e-peas energy management IC that efficiently harvests and converts energy from both RF signals and light into usable power. The device integrates Epishine’s ultra-thin, flexible and low-light optimized solar cells.

This asset tracker eliminates the need for battery replacements, thereby reducing waste and operational interruptions.

“This highlights the advantages of our energy harvesting PMIC, designed to seamlessly work with light power, making it ideal for asset tracking,” said Christian Ferrier, CMO of e-peas.
