RF Energy Harvesting

[Smile4WiFi]

Hello,

Has Arlo/Netscape considered incorporating RF Energy Harvesting into the cameras?

This could make the cameras wire free and battery free.

Develop RF Energy Harvesting circuitry to charge a supercapacitor for short bursts of video recording (high power consumption) and trickle charge a battery for long duration motion sensing (low power consumption).

Even Mouser sells such a thing:

Power from the air:

Cheers!

P.S. By the way, what is the power consumption at different stages of operation?

Are these values published?
