As far as I know there are indeed quite few really commercial products scavenging energy from the environment (except some niche products), despite the mess of scientific papers. The impression about scavenging, reading papers, is that we are at the edge of an adoption in industry, and might become a reality in few time. On the one hand vibrations are on the one hand one of the the most "easy", compared to others (except sunlight?) "more" complex (like chemical reactions).On the other hand working systems are not yet so common.
Dimensions are still problematics, as clearly one can see from above videos. But some energy scavenging are intrinsic mechanical , and less prone to miniaturization.This is an intersting result.
