NEW YORK, April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ambient IoT' describes a new class of connected devices that can harvest energy from virtually any available source in the device's surrounding environment. In recent years, an ecosystem of energy-harvesting component manufacturers has emerged, driving the growth of ambient-powered Internet of Things (IoT) devices. ABI Research, a global technology intelligence firm, forecasts that Ambient IoT device shipments will reach 1.1 billion units in 2030. "Innovation has been led by the designers of power generators, focusing on optimizing techniques to convert ambient energy into usable energy. And by the designers of Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMICs), working to develop chips that can store harvested energy on the device in the most efficient way possible," explains Jonathan Budd, Industry Analyst at ABI Research. "The specialized ecosystems for solar cells and solar modules, piezoelectric harvesters, thermoelectric generators (TEGs), and Radio Frequency (RF) harvesters are enabling energy conversion from low light sources, low temperature gradients, as well as power-at-a-distance via radio signals." The power generator designs of Wiliot, Exeger, Energous, Epishine, Powercast, EnOcean, and Ossia, as well as those for PMICs from e-peas and Nexperia, are unlocking new applications across the IoT landscape for the use of reliable battery-free systems, as well as hybrid models for the combination of battery power and energy harvesting. In 2030, ABI Research projects photovoltaic (PV) harvesting to be the most common method of powering Ambient IoT devices, accounting for 57% of device shipments, followed by RF harvesting with 36%, while piezoelectric and thermoelectric harvesting are expected to power 4% and 3% of Ambient IoT devices, respectively. Since 2014, a niche ecosystem of startup PMIC vendors has focused exclusively on energy harvesting for Ambient IoT. The trend is towards enabling 'energy-agnostic' power management, where PMICs can manage energy captured from any harvested input, whether that be PV, RF, piezoelectric, or thermoelectric harvesting. OEMs can select which inputs are needed based on the nature of the ambient energy inputs in proximity to the device. "For customers managing large networks of battery-powered IoT devices, where batteries need to be frequently replaced, the potential for long-term autonomous operation is enticing. It is up to generator and PMIC suppliers, connectivity standards bodies, as well as the newly formed Ambient IoT Alliance, to demonstrate the total costs of ownership (TCOs) savings that can be achieved through investment in harvesting equipment," Budd concludes. These findings are from ABI Research's Energy Harvesting for the IoT: Vendor Landscape and Technology Development report. This report is part of the company's IoT Hardware research service, which includes research, data, and ABI Insights.

- Starting ifLink business in Thailand, aiming to develop global business - KAWASAKI, Japan, April 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Toshiba Digital Solutions Corporation (Toshiba Digital Solutions) and Toshiba Asia Pacific (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (TATC), a Toshiba Group subsidiary, today brought an innovative, cost effective approach to IoT development to the Thai market with the launch of ifLink , built on the ifLink platform (ifLink) provided by Toshiba Digital Solutions. This is the first ifLink business outside Japan, and TATC is responsible for software license sales and customer support. ifLink is an open IoT platform service that makes it easy to combine various IoT devices and web services into modules, connect to a cloud-based application platform and to define device operation with if-then (condition-action) rules. In Japan, ifLink has won support from over 100 companies and schools, and Toshiba Digital Solutions has provided ifLink licenses to Japanese companies in many different business sectors. In Thailand, IoT implementation has been held back at some manufacturing sites by a lack of know-how and high introductory costs. TATC is collaborating with the Technology Promotion Association (Thailand-Japan) (TPA), a non-profit set up to transfer and disseminate Japan's latest IoT technologies and know-how in Thailand and to develop human resources. TATC has examined and confirmed that ifLink can be applied to kaizen activities at manufacturing sites participating in the Project of Smart Monodzukuri Support Team in Thailand that TPA is promoting as part of its effort to develop human resources for DX. In November 2024 and January 2025, Toshiba held hands-on seminars for project instructors who assist in transferring digital technology to local personnel and TPA member companies covering the practical use of ifLink to set up IoT. Seminar participant found ifLink user-friendly, even for people with limited knowledge of IoT, which prompted Toshiba Digital Solutions and TATC to launch the ifLink business in Thailand for Thai manufacturing companies, including TPA members. Toshiba Digital Solutions provides the ifLink software, and TATC handles software license sales, device setup, and customer support in English and Thai. In Thailand, TATC will offer a trial service leading to a full license. It provides one month's use of the ifLink Starter Kit -- an Android smartphone with the ifLink app installed, a data communications device, and sensors -- and costs 10,500 baht (approximately 310 USD*) from TATC. Users can start using ifLink without preparing any devices themselves. Once users have used the trial service to confirm ifLink's effectiveness, they can purchase the full license. It is a subscription service with a basic monthly license fee of 5,740 baht (approximately 170 USD*), plus the cost of an Android smartphone and the devices and sensors, and a one-time setup fee. The monthly subscription service fee may vary, depending on the sensors used. TPA members that participated in TPA's ifLink seminar will receive a special price. The ifLink Starter Kit for the trial service Toshiba Digital Solutions and TATC target sales of 100 ifLink Starter Kit licenses to manufacturers in Thailand over the three years to fiscal year 2027. They will also seek business partners to provide IoT solutions built on ifLink. Toshiba Digital Solutions is considering taking the ifLink business in Asia-Pacific beyond Thailand, and aims to grow an ifLink-based open IoT business ecosystem in Japan and internationally.
