Measure the temperature at anytime with just a tiny chip

At present, traditional methods of measuring temperature are very expensive and ineffective.

Ultra-small sensor for temperature measurement anywhere

The tiny chip below will help solve the problem of tracking temperature on any object , and especially the chip does not require batteries or wires, it works thanks to radio waves are everywhere place.

Wireless waves are covered, so harnessing energy from them becomes a great solution that scientists are aiming for. However, the power source from wireless waves like Wifi or Real Radio can hardly be enough to run conventional equipment. In this case, using radio waves to power a micro chip is perfectly feasible.

This chip is a super small sensor , a square edge 2mm and weighs 1.6 milligrams. It is capable of recording instantaneous temperatures in any object and material installed. Information about the temperature is transmitted via wireless, and is aggregated through handheld devices such as phones or tablets. However, one weakness of this technology is that it can not simultaneously charge and send out signals about temperature.

The chip is capable of working in a variety of conditions, even under plaster, plaster or concrete. This suggests the integration of new technologies into the high-end smart home arena. The potential of this chip is enormous, as its size and usability is what we've been looking for, researchers say. Even in the future, these chips can automatically move, or add moisture and light tracking. Price is also the advantage that this invention, it is estimated, when put into mass production, the price will be about 20 cents, equivalent to 4500.

In the near future, scientists also want to create a larger version, which integrates many small chips, up to 5 meters in size. When we do this, we can know the temperature of every corner of the house.
