IT researchers co-create an energy-generating smart window

Researchers Sandra Correia, Paulo André, and doctoral student Gonçalo Figueiredo are contributing to a groundbreaking project led by Rute Ferreira, professor at the University of Aveiro's Department of Physics and CICECO. This innovative project aims to create a window that not only generates energy but also transmits data via WiFi.
