Batteryless wireless sensing for smart agriculture

ON Semiconductor's Humidity or Moisture Sensing Portfolio The battery-less wireless sensor is a UHF RFID wireless sensor that enables passive humidity sensing in a wide range of applications where size and space are at a premium. The initial release of these wireless sensors was to use Water leaks in the testing of automotive production, due to their small size, can also be used in a variety of IoT applications and in different industries such as future agriculture and smart farms.

With the help of a drone, humidity or moisture level detection sensor tags designed for passive wetness sensing of various surfaces and finished products can be added to the drone to wirelessly detect crop moisture. In applications, sensor tags measure the soil moisture below ground, optimizing irrigation techniques to minimize the cost of over-irrigation.

The label digitizes the detected temperature or moisture annual detection / level information and then reads the information through a standard UHF RFID Gen 2 compatible reader Batteryless wireless sensor can significantly enhance the reliability of the final product, Deployment in the environment offers many advantages.
