By integrating these micro-scale with advanced circuits and electronics (which consume very low power and possess wireless transmission capabilities), it is possible to monitor environmental conditions. ’16 and Amanda Leonardi from the Ober Group within the Department of Materials Science and Engineering.ĭata gathered by micro-scale sensors can revolutionize our understanding of both natural and man-made environments. ’17 and Alex Ruyack, from the SonicMEMS Laboratory within the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Professor Chris Ober, Katherine Camera Ph.D. The Cornell researchers include Professor Amit Lal, Ved Gund Ph.D. The team uses ultra low-power Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) actuators and rubidium heat sources for making the sensors disappear in an extremely controllable way. A team of researchers from Cornell Engineering has developed novel polymer-based substrates for packaging micro-scale electronic sensors that completely vaporize when triggered with remote radio frequency (RF) signals.Ī team of researchers from Cornell Engineering has developed novel polymer-based substrates for packaging micro-scale electronic sensors that completely vaporize when triggered with remote radio frequency (RF) signals.
