Manufacturers of cell phones, other handheld devices and mobile computers have identifi ed their biggest challenge as power source limitations. The current generation of Lithium batteries, simply dont have the capacity to support the multifunctional, always-on operating model that is now being pushed by handset and computer makers. They have other limitations too - lengthy charge times, environmental issues, relatively short effective lifetimes, etc. The good news is that, in the past few years, developments in the advanced materials sector have pointed the way to solutions for these problems. In addition, the arrival of the fi rst generation of miniature fuel cells promises a future in which mobile computing and communications will no longer be hampered limited battery power.
This NanoMarkets Report:
- Analyzes and quantifi es the opportunities that will arise from these new developments for powering mobile communications and computing devices, portable consumer electronics and wireless sensor networks.
- Provides a realistic projection of these opportunities, based on an assessment of the roadmaps for the new technologies along with a discussion of issues raised by marketing and regulatory factors.
- Forecasts the market for new technologies broken out by the type of equipment in which the power source is used, the type of technology/materials platform being used, and the electrical characteristics of the power source as well as analyzing the strategies and prospects of leading fi rms active in this space.
- Takes a demand-side approach, beginning with an analysis of the power requirements for the next generation of mobile and portable products and making that the basis for assessing what the addressable market for the next generation of power sources will be. .
- Will be of interest to firms in the battery, fuel cell, and photovoltaic/solar power spaces who need to understand the next wave of opportunities and how the new battery and fuel cell technology will impact them in the future. The report will also be of use to advanced materials companies that want to understand the potential for selling their products into the "micro power" segment.
- The report will also provide guidance to semiconductor and electronics fi rms that need to understand what the power capabilities and power management requirements of future "pervasive computing" systems will be.
- The report will also be of use to advanced materials companies that want to understand the potential for selling their products into the "micro power" segment.
