Sensor-based passive RFID tags have been on the market for just a few years, but according to U.K.-based market-research firm IDTechEx, they have accomplished sufficient growth in niche markets that ...

A global energy company is testing a newly released passive sensor tag that measures temperature levels—and, in one version, mechanical strain—then transmits that data to nearby readers via UHF RFID.

“We wondered whether we could repurpose RFID tags to do battery-free sensing and tracking,” says Nagarjun Bhat, a Ph.D. student in electrical engineering and lead author of a new study. Data is power.

For over four decades, gas-leak-detection sensor tech has remained relatively unchanged and proven costly and often unreliable. Advances have changed the landscape, though, with sensors now including ...
