Integration of sensing capabilities with an interactive signage through wireless communication is enabling the development of smart packaging wherein wireless (13.56 MHz) power transmission is used to interlock the smart packaging with a wireless (13.56 MHz) reader or a smart phone. Assembly of the necessary componentry for smart packaging on plastic or paper foils is limited by the manufacturing costs involved with Si based technologies. Here, the issue of manufacturing cost for smart packaging has been obviated by materials that allow R2R (roll-to-roll) gravure in combination with R2R coating processes to be employed. R2R gravure was used to print the wireless power transmission device, called rectenna (antenna, diode and capacitor), and humidity sensor on poly(ethylene terephtalate) (PET) films while electrochromic signage units were fabricated by R2R coating. The signage units were laminated with the R2R gravure printed rectenna and sensor to complete the prototype smart packaging.
通过无线通信将传感功能与交互式标识集成在一起,正在推动智能包装的发展,其中无线(13.56兆赫兹)电力传输用于将智能包装与无线(13.56兆赫兹)读取器或智能手机互锁。在塑料或纸箔上组装智能包装所需的组件受到基于硅技术的制造成本的限制。在此,通过采用允许进行卷对卷凹版印刷并结合卷对卷涂层工艺的材料,消除了智能包装的制造成本问题。采用卷对卷凹版印刷在聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯(PET)薄膜上印刷称为整流天线(天线、二极管和电容器)的无线电力传输装置以及湿度传感器,同时通过卷对卷涂层制造电致变色标识单元。将标识单元与卷对卷凹版印刷的整流天线和传感器层压在一起,以完成智能包装原型。
