            Abstract : 
This work presents three different fully-passive RFID devices with sensing capabilities. The first one, not new in literature, is based on a multi-ID approach while the other two are quite more complex platforms which embed data gathered from on-board and/or external sensors directly into the RFID EPC code. Satisfactory operating range, computing capability, memory accessibility, and cost are the main strengths making the three devices definitely suitable for a wide array of applications.
