Here at Incredilution, we are always on the lookout for new and upcoming technologies to use in our client’s projects.    While energy harvesting is not new, many of the most promising concepts leverage cutting edge technology.
Energy harvesting is the process of capturing and storing ambient energy.  This energy can be in the form of radio waves, heat, vibration, wind, solar and  many others.  We are especially interested in harvesting techniques that can be leveraged for use in an embedded or small device environment.  Below we’ve identified some ideas worthy …

In the last decade or more we’ve seen the proliferation of consumer-oriented wireless devices.   These devices use technologies such as Wifi (802.11) and Bluetooth (802.15.1) to achieve long range and/or very low power functionality.   As these technologies are perfected, they are gradually making their way into smaller, less expensive devices like cell phones, headsets, mp3 players and the list continues. These standards however are not going to create the next wireless boom. Look out for something much smaller in much higher quantities.

Now that I’ve seen it so much I can’t help but mute the TV.  There are plenty of parodies on YouTube regarding the snuggie.  I won’t post them here as they’re not appropriate for wide audiences.

What holds the Military’s new fighter together? The answer to that is adhesive bonded fasteners by Enfasco. Yeah, thats right we’re talking GLUE here. I’m sure those glue specialists would prefer I use the term “Adhesive!!” I bet you’re wondering what possibly could one of these things look like? Here…

I came across these while looking for an innovative solution to mount a product we’re working on to the hull of a boat. After talking with the application engineer over at Enfasco, it is …

If you are using a 7-segment display or an LCD that is circuit board mounted this idea may be perfect for you. Instead of using a harness to connect the display to the main board, solder the display board directly to the main board.  Design the board so the copper conacts run all the way to the edge of both boards.  Next, solder the two boards together at a 90 degree angle. Make sure to place some mechanical pads with vias for support and to prevent the pads from …

We’ve all been worn out by cheap kinky hoses. So you’re leaving for work and notice that your flowers are dying and need to throw some water on them real quick. You go to drag the hose out to where you need it and then run back to the house to turn it on. After cranking on the faucet you run back to the end of the hose to water the flowers. Pull the trigger on your nozzle and….. nothing.
