New Patent Application
Tekcapital plc (AIM: TEK), an international provider of
technology and intellectual property services, announces that it
has filed patent applications in the US and under the Patent
Cooperation Treaty (PCT) for a technology that the directors
believe has the potential to be commercialised into a unique
portable energy harvesting device. Tekcapital has also filed a
trademark registration under the name Moje(TM) for this new
technology.
Moje(TM) is intended to be a small, wearable device that will
enable energy harvesting from everyday human activities such as
walking, hiking, running and jumping. The portable device would
incorporate a novel, dual-mode, low frequency mechanism that
generates a current that could be used to potentially recharge a
variety of mobile electronic devices. These new patent applications
are in addition to two previously acquired intellectual properties,
announced on 29 June 2015, which are being applied to capture
energy from subliminal, in-shoe devices during walking or running.
However, Moje(TM) and its underlying patent applications represent
an independent intellectual property to that which was acquired in
June 2015, and addresses energy harvesting in a significantly
different way.
The directors believe that energy harvesting from human motion
to power mobile devices is poised to become a major new product
category. Should Tekcapital's new energy harvesting technology be
successfully commercialised, then the directors believe that it
will make a meaningful contribution to shareholder value for the
Company.
This patent application will extend the Company's intellectual
property estate to 28 properties, either controlled under either
exclusive license or via ownership.
Commenting on the announcement, Clifford M. Gross, Ph.D.,
Executive Chairman of Tekcapital plc, said:
"We have seen an exponential rise in the market for smart phones
in recent years and we believe wearable technology, which is at an
early stage in terms of mainstream adoption, is likely to
experience similar growth trends. However, one of the key barriers
to widespread adoption is clearly battery life."
"Pending successful testing and commercialisation, Tekcapital's
Moje(TM) could significantly extend battery life though harvesting
energy from everyday human activities such as walking, hiking,
running and jumping, giving users the power to recharge a battery
whilst on the move, which would otherwise run out of power."
