Title:
NETWORK OF ELECTRONIC DEVICES ASSEMBLED ON A FLEXIBLE SUPPORT AND COMMUNICATION METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/178529
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The network (100) of electronic devices is formed on a flexible substrate (15; 101) by a plurality of electronic devices (1; 104) assembled on the flexible substrate. The electronic devices have an embedded antenna for mutual coupling (4; 111) of a wireless type. Each electronic device (1; 104) is formed by a chip or a complex system integrating a transceiver circuit (3) connected to the embedded antenna (4; 11) and a functional part (12; 112) connected to the transceiver circuit and including at least one element chosen in the group comprising: a sensor, an actuator, an interface, an electrode, a memory, a control unit, a power-supply unit, a converter, an adapter, a digital circuit, an analog circuit, an RF circuit, a microelectromechanical system, an electrode, a well, a cell, a container for liquids. The flexible support may be a substrate (15) of plastic material that incorporates the electronic devices or a garment having smart buttons that house the electronic devices.
