Research output: Contribution to conferencePresentation

Abstract

Modern agricultural technology enables growers to precisely apply inputs including fertilizer and water at fine special resolution (on the scale of a few meters), but sensing variation in soil at this resolution remains challenging. Wireless, printed, biodegradable sensors offer a promising solution. These inexpensive sensors could be planted with the crop, provide valuable information throughout the growing season, then harmlessly degrade at the end of their useful lifetime. This approach requires no maintenance or retrieval of sensor nodes.
