We present printed sensing radio frequency identification (RFID) tags on different paper and flexible substrates towards low-cost, automated connected sensor solutions. Combining the Internet of Things (IoT) with printed electronics and low-cost substrates, this work showcases prototyping of devices for automated sensor readout and wireless transmission using a screen printed antenna and RFID sensing chip. Functionality of the tags on three low-cost, flexible substrates was demonstrated through read range measurements and wireless built-in temperature read-out to illustrate the potential of low-cost, connected sensors to be utilized for a range of applications, from cold-chain monitoring to point-of-care diagnostics.
