Abstract
A sensing device may include a first sensor of a first type. The first sensor may include a first conductive element, a second conductive element, and a reactive material between the first conductive element and the second conductive element. The sensing device further including a second sensor of a second type that may be different from the first type. The second sensor may use the first conductive element as a conductive element in the second sensor.
