CleanSpace CO Sensor Runs On Freevolt RF Harvesting

mspohr writes: A few years ago, a Kickstarter was set up to develop a locator tag powered by free radio frequency (RF) energy harvested from the environment.

Since they have several thousand of these devices collecting data, they do appear to work and it seems to be in the 'not a scam' department.
