A Disposable Inkjet-Printed Humidity and Temperature Sensor Fabricated on Paper

A Disposable Inkjet-Printed Humidity and Temperature Sensor Fabricated on Paper

In this work we present the development of a low-cost humidity and temperature sensing platform on paper by inkjet printing, using a commercial AgNPs conductive ink. The humidity sensing module was capable of measuring relative humidity in the range of 0⁻90%rH, exhibiting linear response w...
