It provides new mechanisms for activity recognition without the need of conventional inertial sensors, which demand significant energy during their operation and thus quickly deplete the batteries of internet-of-things (IoT) devices. The book offers new solutions by employing energy harvesters as activity sensors as well as power sources to enable the autonomous and self-powered operation of IoT devices without the need of human intervention. It provides useful content for graduate students as well as researchers to understand the nascent technologies of human activity, fitness and health monitoring using autonomous sensors. In particular, this book is very useful for people working on pervasive computing, activity recognition, wearable IoT, fitness/healthcare and autonomous systems. This book covers a broad range of topics related to self-powered activity recognition. The main topics of this book include wearables, IoT, energy harvesting, energy harvesters as sensors, activity recognition and self-powered operation of IoT devices. This book starts with the introduction of wearable IoT devices and activity recognition and then highlights the conventional activity recognition mechanisms. After that, it describes the use of energy harvesters to power the IoT devices. Later, it explores the use of various energy harvesters as activity sensors. It also proposes the use of energy harvesters as simultaneous source of energy and context information and defines the emerging concept of energy-positive sensing compared to conventional energy-negative sensing. Finally, it explores sensor/signal fusion to enhance the performance using multiple energy harvesters and charts a way forward for future research in this area. This book covers all important and emerging topics that have significance in the design and implementation of autonomous wearable IoT devices. We believe that this book will lay the foundation for designing self-powered IoT devices which can ultimately replace the conventional wearable IoT devices which need regular recharging and replacement. 410 0$aGreen Energy and Technology,$x1865-3537 606 $aEnergy harvesting 606 $aInternet of things 606 $aTelecommunication 606 $aCooperating objects (Computer systems) 606 $aEnergy Harvesting 606 $aInternet of Things 606 $aCommunications Engineering, Networks 606 $aCyber-Physical Systems 615 0$aEnergy harvesting. 615 0$aInternet of things. 615 0$aTelecommunication. 615 0$aCooperating objects (Computer systems) 615 14$aEnergy Harvesting. 615 24$aInternet of Things. 615 24$aCommunications Engineering, Networks. 615 24$aCyber-Physical Systems. 676 $a004.678 676 $a004.678 700 $aSandhu$b Muhammad Moid$01368901 701 $aKhalifa$b Sara$01368902 701 $aPortmann$b Marius$01368903 701 $aJurdak$b Raja$01368904 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910731479803321 996 $aSelf-Powered Internet of Things$93394888 997 $aUNINA
