Abstract
An apparatus implements wireless destructible tags. The apparatus includes a first side with multiple identifiers and a second side with an adhesive. The apparatus further includes a controller with a memory storing a code corresponding to an identifier. The apparatus further includes a proximal end with the controller, a distal end, and an antenna connected to the controller and extending between the proximal end and the distal end. The apparatus further includes a substrate extending between the proximal end and the distal end and with multiple notches to promote tearing the substrate and the antenna.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a first side comprising a plurality of identifiers;
- a second side comprising an adhesive;
- a controller comprising a memory storing a code corresponding to an identifier of the plurality of identifiers;
- a proximal end comprising the controller;
- a distal end;
- an antenna connected to the controller and extending between the proximal end and the distal end;
- and
- a substrate extending between the proximal end and the distal end and comprising a plurality of notches to promote tearing the substrate and the antenna.
A method comprising:
- providing a substrate comprising:
- a first side comprising a plurality of identifiers,
- a second side comprising an adhesive,
- a proximal end comprising a controller, and
- a distal end;
- connecting an antenna to the controller and extending between the proximal end and the distal end;
- cutting a plurality of notches into the substrate between the proximal end and the distal end to promote tearing the substrate and the antenna;
- and
- storing a code corresponding to an identifier of the plurality of identifiers to a memory of the controller.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a controller of a tag, a request from a tag communication device to write a value corresponding to hash value of a block of a hash chain, wherein the block comprises a payload that comprises one or more of genetic data, permit data, location data, tag data, plant data, and environment data;
- storing the value to a memory of the controller;
- and
- in response to a request to read the value, transmitting the value.
