Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for energy harvesting within a wearable device are described. The wearable device may include an inner ring-shaped housing, one or more sensors, and an outer ring-shaped housing. The outer ring-shaped housing may include at least one thermally isolated portion that extends at least partially around the wearable ring device and is isolated from a remaining portion of the outer ring-shaped housing. The device may further include one or more thermo-electric- generator (TEG) components disposed between the inner ring-shaped housing and the at least one thermally isolated portion of the outer ring-shaped housing. The one or more TEG components are configured to generate an electric current to power the one or more sensors, recharge a battery of the wearable ring device, or both, based on a temperature difference between the inner ring-shaped housing and the at least one thermally isolated portion of the outer ring-shaped housing.
