01 / THE SOLAR CELL
Engineered
from the crystal up.
Perovskite science becomes usable power.
Our starting point is a vacuum-grown perovskite solar cell. We control the material composition, thickness and interfaces as the device forms.
That precision creates a foundation for harvesting indoor light and integrating photovoltaics with electronics.

02 / FOLLOW THE ENERGY
From the solar cell
to intelligence at the edge.
Capture the light. Manage the power. Keep a connected device working. Our development connects indoor photovoltaics with ultra-low-power electronics, IoT and edge AI.
I / ULTRA-LOW-POWER ELECTRONICS
Capture light.
Deliver usable power.
Bring photovoltaics closer to the circuit.
We are developing direct integration of perovskite photovoltaics above a power-management integrated circuit, or PMIC.
The aim is a compact power module that converts harvested light into power the electronics can use, with less dependence on repeated battery replacement.

II / AUTONOMOUS IoT
Connected devices.
Powered by their surroundings.
Indoor light becomes a working resource.
Our first device opportunities are low-power sensor nodes for buildings, warehouses and environmental monitoring.
We are developing photovoltaic power modules and battery-free IoT prototypes for customer validation and OEM design-in.

III / PV-POWERED EDGE AI
Power the device.
Bring intelligence closer.
An energy foundation for the next generation of endpoints.
Our application direction extends from sensing into ultra-low-power edge AI devices, with photovoltaics supporting the power needs of electronics close to where data is generated.
We are developing the power platform for this transition, alongside IoT integration and application-specific validation.

03 / EVIDENCE & DEVELOPMENT GOALS
Research proven.
Prototype driven.
Published solar-cell research is our foundation. The current programme brings that expertise into indoor power and integrated electronics.
≥42%
Indoor conversion efficiency
Target at 1,000 lux.
Certification is a development milestone.
10,000 h
Long-term performance
Target: retain at least 90%
of initial performance beyond 10,000 hours.
The 18.35% result is reported in Nature Materials, 2026. Indoor efficiency and lifetime figures are programme targets, not commercial product specifications. Integrated PV-powered devices are in prototype development.
