Today’s fast-paced retail environment requires innovative digital solutions without compromising sustainability. Pricer, a leading Swedish supplier of shelf edge automation and communication solutions, will explore the possibilities of a new generation of advanced electronic shelf labels (ESL) making them self-powered through light in partnership with Epishine (Linköping, Sweden).
An ultrathin protective coating proves sufficient to protect a perovskite solar cell from the harmful effects of space and harden it against environmental factors on Earth, according to newly published research from the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
Dracula Technologies (Valence, France), a pioneer in harvesting energy through indoor light, participates at Eureka Park at CES 2023, the most influential tech event in the world, which will take place in Las Vegas, 5-8 January 2023. Dracula Technologies will showcase its LAYER technology, an organic photovoltaic (OPV) solution that generates energy from light in our living spaces and eliminates the need for batteries. The platform charges low-power indoor (LPI) devices, even in low-light conditions. Using a development kit, partners can tailor the technology to specific applications. Several samples will be presented at the event—including an autonomous temperature logger, a CO2 sensor, an infrared sensor, and a remote-control device.
