MAIN GOALS:
• Design and fabricate capacitive humidity
sensors of different geometry and
configuration.
• Test sensors on different cellulose based
substrates.
• Find the optimum design (electrically and
economically) for future work.
The ultimate goal is to fabricate a RFID enabled
system with screen printed sensors for use in
smart packaging applications.
