The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech), a leading public research university, a $450,000 Project Grant under the NSF's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070). The grant supports technical advances in the design of small, low-power computing hardware and software for energy harvesting systems to restore the continuous power abstraction for batteryless Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Key objectives include developing an energy-aware harvester architecture, hardware support for sustained system functionality across power cycles, and a hybrid design optimizing responsiveness and energy efficiency. This project aims to enable high-density, "deploy-and-forget" IoT deployments without batteries, transforming environmental, transportation, and healthcare applications. No subawards are planned for this project, which will run from October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026.
