There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Abstract: The objective of the proposed research is centered on passive RF sensing, in particular the design and development of nano-material based flexible sensors for high frequency applications utilizing 3D/inkjet printing technologies. One major advantage of nano-meterial based RF sensing platforms is the realization of completely passive remote sensing in minimized packaging with high sensitivity. 3D and inkjet printing technologies make the large scale fabrication of flexible sensors at low cost feasible. To illustrate, address the major challenges, and advance in the field of wireless sensing, my research introduces the design and development of one passive RF gas sensor, two strain sensors and one hand gesture sensor.
