The worlds tiniest temperature sensor is powered by radio waves

The world’s tiniest temperature sensor is powered by radio waves

Researchers at TU/e have developed a very tiny wireless temperature sensor that is powered in a very special way: from the radio waves that are part of the sensor’s wireless network. This means that the sensor needs not even a single wire, nor a battery that would have to be replaced. The arrival of such […]
