IRIS architecture, nano chemical sensor, and e-textile antenna will be integrated/tested to make it wearable, mobile, peel-stick or fit where it is needed for chemical sensing. We will utilize the architecture by getting communications for free through RFID and low power thermocouple interface for low power and long life.
More »NASA crew members need a class of deployable air quality sensor that can operate for months-to-years without needing to be recharged target, operation on a single battery for at least the entirety of an ISS tour, and quietly transfer data logging/analysis with no crew member intervention. With low power and small footprint nanosensors and RFID, we can provide long life, one-button operation, mobile and always-on environmental sensing capability to meet the needs above. We plan to integrate ARC CO2 nanosensor with JSC low power RFID platform to achieve: 1) low power in mW; 2) small size of 1.36 x 1.36; 3) autonomous and long-life of ~9 years operation.
