Wireless electrostatic charging and communicating system

A wireless electrostatic rechargeable device for being electrically charged by an electrostatic charge, the wireless electrostatic rechargeable device comprising:

• an energy storage means with a capacity to store energy to operate the wireless electrostatic rechargeable device;
• an electrostatic charge receiver, for receiving an electrostatic charge and converting it into a first AC signal;
• a rectifier, coupled to the electrostatic charge receiver, for receiving the first AC signal and providing a DC signal;
• a voltage regulator, coupled to the rectifier, for receiving the DC signal and for regulating the DC signal to a DC voltage at a DC supply node;
• and
• a charge controller, coupled to the voltage regulator and the energy storage means, for storing energy in the energy storage means when the DC voltage is provided by the voltage regulator and preventing degradation of the energy storage means when the DC voltage is not sufficiently provided by the voltage regulator,
• whereby the wireless electrostatic rechargeable device may be electrically charged by the electrostatic charge.
