Energous Corporation d/b/a Energous Wireless Power Solutions has launched the e-Sense tag, a battery-free and maintenance-free wireless sensor for location and temperature monitoring in retail, supply chain, and logistics environments. The new solution also marks the completion of the company’s end-to-end wireless power platform for ambient IoT, combining wireless power with intelligent sensing and cloud-based visibility in a single platform.

The e-Sense tag operates using energy harvested from Energous’ wireless power network and is exclusively compatible with Energous PowerBridge transmitters. It is housed in a fully encapsulated and waterproof 4 × 5-cm form factor. The tag continuously reports temperature and location data to Energous’ cloud platform, targeting retail, transportation, and cold chain applications.
Energous said with the introduction of the e-Sense tag, it now offers a complete ambient IoT platform consisting of wirelessly-powered, battery-free sensors, RF-based energy transmitters, and cloud-based monitoring software. This integrated system enables uninterrupted, real-time visibility across supply chains without relying on batteries, manual maintenance, or conventional wired infrastructure.
“Ambient IoT enables a new class of connected devices that are smaller, lower-cost, and more sustainable than traditional, battery-powered sensor technologies,” Energous said. “As global enterprises scale deployments to improve traceability, compliance, and automation, wireless power is becoming an essential layer of infrastructure.”
Sensor data from the e-Sense tag is transmitted to e-Compass, the company’s secure, cloud-based asset intelligence platform, which offers real-time monitoring, device management, zoning, reporting, and support for historical data analysis. It is built on AWS IoT Core and supports enterprise deployments with tools for regulatory compliance, process optimization, and decision-making based on real-time environmental conditions.
