In a software-driven world, it's easy to forget about the nuts and bolts. Whether it's cars, robots, personal gadgetry or industrial machines, Candace Lombardi examines the moving parts that keep our ...

In a new study, researchers describe a novel approach for a wireless communication network that can efficiently transmit, receive and decode data from thousands of microelectronic chips that are each ...

Technology solutions that leverage radio frequency identification and sensors at affordable prices continue to evolve with a new passive RFID tag intended to accommodate multiple sensors and transmit ...

Sensors provide an amazing connection to the physical world, but extracting usable data isn’t so simple. In fact, many first-time IoT designers are unprepared for how messy a sensor’s data can be.

Some active RFID tags have input and output ports on their circuit boards, enabling users to connect sensors and have sensor data transmitted to readers. There are also a wide variety of active RFID ...

The sensor network is designed so the chips can be implanted into the body or integrated into wearable devices. Each submillimeter-sized silicon sensor mimics how neurons in the brain communicate ...
