Wearable Solar Cell Systems looks at possibilities for supporting the energy demand of these devices without the need to return to the dreaded wall outlet for recharging.

Recenzje

"This book after reviewing the fundamentals of solar cells and basic power conversion systems for converting the PV energy into desired current and voltage levels, provides some comparisons of various cell materails for wearable devices powered by PV cells....This is a book for students or interested readers who want to learn some basic fundamentals of PV cells, the different types of cells, and some of the considerations when designing with PV cells for wearable applications."
