If you have some spare potatoes in your home, you might want to think about using them to be more than just food or your main source of carbohydrates. Rather, you might actually want to look into securing your home with smart sensors, and to have these smart sensors be powered by potatoes.

This is what Globio has come up with, and since their smart security sensors happen to be so low on energy consumption, they can actually run off a potato in a more modern update of the classic science experiment. Such smart security sensors can then get to work to monitor the likes of movement, magnetic fields, vibrations, temperature, air pressure or humidity, before triggering an alarm as and when the need arises.
