NANO-EH

The fourth Industrial Revolution is based on the deployment of the Internet of Things (IoT), which interconnects autonomous mobile devices with unprecedented processing power, storage capacity and access to knowledge. In the future, our devices will become more and more connected. However, this will require environment-friendly, battery-less and efficient power supply solutions in computing, sensing and human-machine interaction. To tackle this issue, the EU-funded NANO-EH project aims to use nanomaterials in advanced device engineering for smart energy harvesting/storage submodules that are tailored for the specific needs of stand-alone, mobile or portable uses. The project aims to develop non-toxic and rare earth/lead-free materials to carry out the fourth Industrial Revolution.
