License Agreement on Energy Harvesting
GRAZ, Austria & MUNICH--(Business Wire)--
SensorDynamics, manufacturer and supplier of micro and wireless sensor
semiconductor products, has entered into a license agreement with EnOcean
http://www.enocean.com for the use of its patented energy harvesting technology
within the automotive sector. EnOcean`s leading energy harvesting technology
allows energy extraction from the environment - movement, light or changes in
temperature - via miniaturized energy converters and generators, in combination
with wireless data transmission. This technology is already well established in
the industrial and building market, providing new opportunities for green -
wireless and battery less - applications. 

By securing this leading technology for the automotive market, SensorDynamics
will now offer fully integrated energy harvesting product solutions to its
automotive customers worldwide. The first result of this new product family is
the SD341 transceiver system specially designed for automotive energy harvesting
applications. With this product, SensorDynamics enables battery less remote
sensing e.g. in tyre pressure monitoring systems. The agreement enables
SensorDynamics to offer a complete integrated wireless energy harvesting system
solution.
