Ultra-small systems, however, cannot store sufficient energy to sustain monitoring, interface, processing, and telemetry functions for long. And replacing or recharging the batteries of hundreds of networked nodes can be labor intensive, expensive, and oftentimes impossible. This is why alternate sources are the subject of ardent research today. Except power densities are low, and in many cases, intermittent, so supplying functional blocks is challenging. Plus, tiny lithium-ion batteries and super capacitors, while power dense, cannot sustain life for extended periods. This talk illustrates how emerging microelectronic systems can draw energy from elusive ambient sources to power tiny wireless sensors.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESpeaker Bio\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EProf. Gabriel A.

It all sounded appealing, but I never thought I would have the opportunity to attend law school, much less become a patent attorney. Yet, here I am, because you just never know.

The reconstruction algorithms recover the hyperspectral signal from measured data. I discuss various approaches to reconstruction, including optimization and neural networks.
