Our Funders and Projects

"Using electromagnetism as an energy source to power batteries, is of central importance to designing devices for future threat detection [...] I am looking forward with great anticipation to the outcomes of this cutting-edge research."

- Alex van Someren, Chief Scientific Adviser for National Security to HM Government

We have various over 30 collaborators in academia and industry supported by EPSRC, UKRI, Innovate UK, IAAs, and other schemes; get in touch if you are interested in working with us.

Highlighted Publications:

Combining electromagnetics and advanced materials, chipless sensors can now be stacked in arrays enabling a spatially-distributing readout; read more in Advanced Science (frontispiece cover). The first of chip-free GREEN RF sensing applying new materials and readout techniques.



Bringing together the UK RF power transfer research community, we led an invited review article on RF-enabled power delivery for the IEEE Microwave Magazine's Wireless Power Issue, spanning the full breadth of UK-based R& D activities in wireless power.

Commercialisation:

Our research in wireless-powered sensing is
being commercialised by RX WaTT Ltd.

RX WaTT has been part of the highly selective Octopus Ventures Springboard accelerator, and is now part of STAC, Scotland's leading IoT scale-up platform, through the Infinity-G programme.

We have been supported by the EPSRC IAA, RAEng training programmes, CENSIS Impact Support Programme, and selected in an Innovate UK competition.
