A Chipless RFID Humidity Sensor for Smart Packaging Applications

A chipless RFID humidity sensor suitable for smart packaging is proposed in this work. The sensor is flexible, fast, low-cost, easy to fabricate and can be read wirelessly. The results show a very high sensitivity in the low-humidity range (1–10%), making it especially suited to monitor and establish package integrity.

Single Condensation Droplet Self-Ejection from Divergent Structures with Uniform Wettability

Coalescence-induced condensation droplet jumping has been extensively studied for anti-icing, condensation heat transfer, water harvesting, and self-cleaning. Another phenomenon that is gaining attention for potential enhancements is the self-ejection of individual droplets. However, the mechanism underlying this process remains elusive due to cases in which the abrupt detachment of an interface establishes an initial Laplace pressure difference. In this study, we investigate the self-ejectio...

Design and Demonstration of Radio Frequency Micro Electro-Mechanical System Switches with Meandered Beams for Reduced Actuation Voltage

In this paper, a class of three series ohmic switches is presented, including its design principles, the simulation results, and the outcomes of the measurements performed on the first batch of fabricated samples. The design of the adopted membranes is based on meandered beams, targeting a reduced actuation voltage. The initial and promising electro-mechanical simulations, performed in an Ansys Workbench environment, predicted actuation voltages in the 5–8 V range, whereas the measurements hi...

Mitigating Debugger-based Attacks to Java Applications with Self-Debugging

Java bytecode is a quite high-level language and, as such, it is fairly easy to analyze and decompile with malicious intents, e.g., to tamper with code and skip license checks. Code obfuscation was a first attempt to mitigate malicious reverse engineering based on static analysis. However, obfuscated code can still be dynamically analyzed with standard debuggers to perform step-wise execution and to inspect (or change) memory content at important execution points, e.g., to alter the verdict o...

Opportunistic (Re)planning for Long-Term Deep-Ocean Inspection: An Autonomous Underwater Architecture

Robots are increasingly used in subsea environments because of their positive impact on human safety and operational capabilities in the deep ocean. However, achieving full autonomy remains challenging because of the extreme conditions they encounter. In this context, we propose an autonomous underwater architecture for long-term deep-ocean inspection that robustly plans activities and efficiently deliberates with no human help. It combines the innovative Saipem’s Hydrone-R subsea vehicle wit...
