Innovative RFID Sensor TAGs - Joint project "Cool-RFID"

Cool Silicon e.V.
Since January 2018, another new Cool Silicon project is making progess: "Cool-RFID" aims at the development of a holistic system solution, which makes it possible to detect conditions in addition to product identifiers with passive, i.e. without additional battery, RFID components. For this purpose, specially developed RFID transponders are coupled with sensors (RFID sensor tags), so that the condition of the sensors can be read out wirelessly with RFID readers. The project's comprehensive approach connects members from the RFID network of the Silicon Saxony cluster with the leading-edge cluster Cool...

The end of the light switch? CoolCarbonConcrete Project

Cool Silicon e.V.
Germany is experiencing a construction boom seemingly without end. With a yearly share of around 50%, the construction industry is one of the major consumers of raw materials and energy. This can be much more efficient with carbon concrete. The intelligent use of carbon in concrete as an infrastructure for electrics and electronics opens up completely new functions and applications. To discuss this topic and find cross-industry solutions, around 70 participants took part in the "Open Space Innovation Forum" from 20 to 21 March which is part of the CoolCarbonConcrete project - conducted by Cool Silicon e. V...
