Breakthrough fractal antenna patent
Filed Oct 24, 2006 at 2:00 PM ·
Fractus has been granted the world's first technology patent for an IC package including a miniature fractal antenna.
The technology, commonly referred to as Antenna in Package (AiP), has been granted a patent in the US.
Fractus technology allows the antenna, traditionally a separate component, to be integrated with other RF components such as the radio and RF processor. Using fractal geometry, the company has created a design that is small enough to be incorporated onto the IC and accommodate multiple bands (frequencies) to support numerous short-range wireless standards.

Grain of truth
Filed Oct 03, 2006 at 6:35 PM ·
Miniature spies the size of fists that can reveal the state of granular materials stored in industrial hoppers are planned by a group of industry-backed researchers...
The small sensor units will be tossed into the storage containers and wirelessly transmit information about their position and environment. They could trigger alerts when deteriorating conditions threaten to spoil the commodity, whether it is grain, petrochemical products or other loose materials.
