Indoor Light Energy Harvesting using Photovoltaic (PV) Textiles
This project aims to the integration of flexible photovoltaic (PV) fibers into everyday fabrics to capture ambient indoor lighting and convert it into usable electrical power for low‑energy wearables and Internet of Things devices. We systematically evaluate how much energy can be harvested from PV‑textiles under a range of indoor lighting conditions.
