Huh?
Im not talking about the research itself, but about how it could be utilized. Having small devices that can be powered by nothing but stray radiowaves is cool, but its useless if you cant somehow connect those devices with the rest of the world. Thats the issue im complaining about.

There are tons of small devices that don’t have to be connected to be useful. Lots of personal items or small sensors.

Anything that can be powered by this research, can also be powered by a button sized battery for weeks if not not longer. I thinks its more intended for very off grid stuff but maybe im just too uncreative.

I just want it for my TV remote if the form factor is small enough
