Majid, A.Y. (author), van der Horst, C. (author), van Rietbergen, T.L. (author), Zwart, D.J. (author), Venkatesha Prasad, Ranga Rao (author)The ability to localize a sound source is essential for safe integration of robots in our society. However, its high computational demand makes it challenging to equip small swarm robots with such capability. Therefore, this paper investigates potential means for developing a lightweight sound source localization method. It introduces the...conference paper 2021

Majid, A.Y. (author)Battery-free energy-harvesting devices have the potential to operate for decades, since they draw power fromvirtually unlimited energy sources, such as sunlight. However, ambient energy sources are volatile, and tiny harvesters can extract only weak power from them. Thus, small energy-harvesting devices operate intermittently: first, they charge...doctoral thesis 2020

Majid, A.Y. (author), Schilder, Patrick (author), Langendoen, K.G. (author)The main obstacles to achieve truly ubiquitous sensing are (i) the limitations of battery technology - batteries are short-lived, hazardous, bulky, and costly - and (ii) the unpredictability of ambient power. The latter causes sensors to operate intermittently, violating the availability requirements of many real-world applications. In this...conference paper 2020

Majid, A.Y. (author), Delle Donne, C. (author), Maeng, Kiwan (author), Colin, Alexei (author), Yildirim, Kasim Sinan (author), Lucia, Brandon (author), Pawełczak, Przemysław (author)Energy-neutral Internet of Things requires freeing embedded devices from batteries and powering them from ambient energy. Ambient energy is, however, unpredictable and can only power a device intermittently. Therefore, the paradigm of intermittent execution is to save the program state into non-volatile memory frequently to preserve the...journal article 2020
