Keynote Title:
Small, Micro, Invisible-RFID
Keynote Abstract:
The media often likes to portray new technologies as the result of a flash of brilliance in the night, or the work of some solitary genius. In fact, if you look at the development of the telephone, the light bulb or the first airplane, each of these inventions was based on the convergence of basic concepts that were well known in the scientific community. The inventors built upon prior knowledge to create something that was practical and versatile. RFID has gone from a solution to problem (1969), a “breadbox” test system (1970), the birth of an industry and in the future a nano device (150 nm or less). This paper will present how RFID went from a concept to an industry and possibly to an invisible device. This technology will truly enable fulfillment of the promise of the Internet of Things (IoT). The recent developments of producing a true nano RFID which will lead to a nano distributive meshed computer system. These devices can be styled “Intelligent Surfaces” (IS). These nano RFIDs (NRs) may prove to be a truly disruptive technology. With the addition of artificial intelligence (AI) the NRs could become a significant total system.
Prof. Gaetano Marrocco
Full Professor at University of Rome Tor Vergata
Gaetano Marrocco MS in Electronic Engineering and Ph.D. in Applied Electromagnetics from the University of L'Aquila, Italy, in 1994 and 1998, respectively. Researcher at the University of Roma Tor Vergata in 1994-2014. Associate Professor of Electromagnetics in 2013-2017, Full Professor at the University of Roma Tor Vergata since 2018. He currently serves as Director of the Medical Engineering School. The first phase of his career was devoted to the research on Time-Domain electromagnetics with application to structural, broadband, and ultra-wideband antennas for Satellite (ESA, ASI), Avionic, and Naval (Leonardo) communications. Then, since 2002 he is investigating sensor-oriented miniaturized antennas for Biomedical Engineering and Radiofrequency Identification (RFID), contributing to the move from the RF labeling of objects to the passive sensor networks in the Internet of Things era. He carried out pioneering research on bodycentric battery-less wireless sensors concerning textile RFID antennas, tattoo-like sensors (flexible and stretchable epidermal electronics), and radio-sensors embedded inside implanted prostheses. He served foe many years as Associate Editor for the IEEE Journal of Radiofrequency Identification, as member of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society Awards committee, and currently he is AE of the IEEE Journal of Flexible Electronics. Moreover, he is the chair of the Italian delegation URSI Commission D Electronics and Photonics. He was the chair of the Local Committee of the V European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EUCAP-2011), TPC chair of the 2012 IEEE-RFID TA in Nice, France, TPC track-chair of the 2016 IEEE Antennas and Propagation Int. Symposium, TPC track-chair of IEEE-RFID 2018-22, USA and co-chair of the 2024 IEEE FLEPS in Finland. Prof. Marrocco is the director of the Pervasive Electromagnetics Lab (www.pervasive.ing.uniroma2.it) and the co-founder and president of the University spin-off RADIO6ENSE (www.radio6ense.com), which is active in the short-range electromagnetic sensing for the Industrial Internet of Things, Smart Manufacturing, Automotive and Medical Device. He is listed in the PLOS ranking of Top 2% Scientists Worldwide (source Univ. Stanford, 2023).
Keynote Title:
Digitally Empowered Humans
Keynote Abstract:
Life expectancy has significantly increased in recent decades, partly thanks to the growing pervasive use of technology that has produced sophisticated diagnostic equipment and multi-functional medical devices, often interconnected and powered by artificial intelligence-based algorithms. The next transformative step is the dematerialization of many devices, integrating them directly onto the skin or within the human body. This shift holds immense potential for prediction, prevention, and personalized care. Radio frequency Identification, when coupled with unconventional materials and highly embedded into tissues and medical objects, is perhaps the only technology capable to support this digital transformation from the micro to the macro scale. This presentation will introduce RFID-based flexible and stretchable electronic devices that adhere on the body like a second skin capable of digitalizing body parameters, restoring touch functionality, and enhancing traditional senses, thereby laying the groundwork for the Tactile Internet. The second part of the speech will delve into RFID-powered Cyber Prostheses. This involves transforming conventional, passive, and bulky orthopedic and cardiac implanted devices into data-generators by leveraging the hidden antennas within them, or by engraving a graphene circuit on the prothesis itself by laser patterning. These technologies promise a significant leap in self-knowledge, enabling unprecedented identification of our healthy baseline and the early detection of anomalies. The last part of the talk will be devoted to the open issues related to security/privacy and data ownership, the resolution of which will be crucial for the mass adoption of this new framework.
