Wireless Passive Nanoparticle based Intelligent Sensor System for Extreme Environments
SBC: SENSATEK PROPULSION TECHNOLOGY, INC Topic: T13Sensatek Propulsion Technology, Inc. proposes to demonstrate the feasibility of a wireless, passive, nanoparticle-based sensor system. The sensor in its current form can be used to measure real time temperatures and pressures wirelessly without the need of an external energy source. It should be noted that the same sensing principle can be used for strain monitoring as well. It comprises of a micr ...
