Classification: CPC F  G | IPC F  G

Claim 0:
1. A sensing device, comprising:
one or more temperature sensors configured to generate sensor signals representing one or more temperatures;
one or more transmitters configured to wirelessly transmit sensor data representing the sensor signals to a remote device;
control circuitry configured to control operation of the one or more transmitters, and to convert the sensor signals to the sensor data, the sensor data comprising time series data representing the one or more temperatures;
a thermo-electric generator configured to harvest heat energy from an environment in which the sensing device is deployed;
an energy harvesting device configured to harvest a different type of energy than heat energy from the environment;
an energy storage device configured to store energy derived from a combination of the heat energy and the different type of energy; and
power management circuitry configured to control the storing of the energy derived from the combination of the heat energy and the different type of energy by the energy storage device.
