Overview
The potential of energy harvesting and batteryless sensing promises a future where IoT devices will become sustainable, long-lasting, and maintenance free. Given the significant challenges involved with building and programming such devices, it is reasonable to question whether energy harvesting based IoT can replace existing wearables (fitness trackers, smartwatches, or medical devices), while providing a reliable user experience. Hence, an important question arises: “What role can energy harvesting based sensing play in the age of AI and deep learning?” While energy harvesting based sensors can unlock new applications in wearables and personalized data analytics, the path towards integrating them into the modern deep learning landscape requires substantial intellectual innovation. This workshop aims to bridge multiple perspectives in wearable sensing and data analytics in the modern age of AI.

AI and algorithms (e.g. deep learning architectures) for energy harvesting
AI applications with energy harvesting-based wearables
Energy harvesting-based wearables (e.g. new devices or case studies)
Batteryless devices
Efficient sensing and communication
Energy neutral operation
Systems/networks of energy harvesting sensors
Multimodal and new energy harvesting modalities
Simulation tools and frameworks for energy harvesting
Datasets for energy harvesting based wearables
