SMD Power Sensors Help Logistics Delivery

In the past, logistics and courier operators, in order to ensure high unit prices and fragile goods, placed their goods next to the driver's seat and monitored the status of the goods throughout the camera in the warehouse, but they often could not understand the condition of the goods themselves in the parcel. Some operators may use patch-type sensing labels or dumping indicators. However, this method will require additional postal procedures that will affect work efficiency.

To this end, the Department of Electronic Engineering, Nantai University of Science and Technology developed a logistics packaging tape with a network connection application; this device uses pressure-packed film as a force sensing element, which can be combined with the tape material plate to make the device more power-efficient. Passive dynamic response is adopted as a sensing mechanism. Signals are transmitted to the cloud through the 4G network for monitoring and management of shipments.

Zhang Wanrong, director of the Department of Electronic Engineering at Nantai University of Science and Technology, said that the tape-type sensor allows the logistics industry to no longer need to post more procedures, allowing the staff to operate in a customary manner and achieve the logistics package monitoring function. Through the integration of technologies such as low-power consumption, NFC, and wireless transmission of information, logistic owners can master a huge amount of goods at a time.

Therefore, if the system is equipped with the team developed by the team, it will effectively resolve the security of parcels when the goods are delivered; in the future, it can also be applied to the value-added applications of warehousing companies, such as the preservation or management of encrypted storage documents, sealed data of enterprises.
