Active mechatronic implants applied to provide therapy of insufficient bodily functions and acquisition of biomedical data are an emerging field in the context of Medicine 4.0. Wireless data transmission between the implant and out-body devices enables patients and health care professionals to access physiological data as well as take technical control and also allows for home monitoring solutions. Due to the limitations associated with primary batteries or conventional wireless power transferring methods in deep-tissue layers, human body energy harvesting is a promising alternative or complement for power supply. A high efficient power management in order to reduce the implanted device’s energy consumption is not only requested to effectively use the limited amounts of energy harvested but also contributes to extend implantation times and thus avoid invasive surgical procedures. This paper presents solution approaches for both software- and hardware-based low power management and storage options for active deep-tissue implants using hybrid energy storage systems and considering miniaturisation requirements of devices powered by energy harvesting.
