Abstract
Systems () and methods () for adaptively managing power for an Energy Harvesting System ('EHS'). The methods involve: measuring a light intensity level available in a surrounding environment; wirelessly communicating a first wireless signal from the EHS () to a remote device () for causing the light intensity level to be increased by remotely turning on a light source () or opening a cover preventing light emitted from the light source from reaching the EHC, when the light intensity level is below a pre-specified level; using an Energy Harvesting Circuit ('EHC') to recharge a rechargeable battery () when the light intensity level rises above the pre-specified level; and wirelessly communicating a second wireless signal from the EHS to the remote device for causing the light source be turned off or the cover to be closed, when the capacity or state-of-charge of the rechargeable battery reaches a pre-specified value.
