Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute researchers develop a wood-based RFID tag for timber-tracking applications.
The RFID transponder is synthesized from paper and lignin integrated with an antenna.
The identification data is read as trucks pass through portal-based readers.
Each RFID tag provides data about the wood origin, quantity, wood type and its destination. …
… “They created inexpensive small RFID responders out of paper and lignin connected to an antenna. “ …
