Patent attributes
An electronic device includes a first portion and a second portion, an electric power generating device and a load device. The electronic device is disposed in an opening of a connected space, and the electronic device and a wall have the opening divide the connected space into the first space and the second space. The first portion is located in a first space having a first ambient temperature, and the second portion is located in a second space having a second ambient temperature. The electric power generating device is configured to generate a thermo-electromotive force based on a temperature difference between the first ambient temperature and the second ambient temperature to generate electrical energy. The load device is configured to obtain the electrical energy and operate on the electrical energy.
