Engineers from the University of Glasgow have developed the new wireless tag system.

The tags use inexpensive coils and a sensing material made from a form of silicon rubber called PDMS and carbon fibers.

They can identify objects and measure temperature without the use of microchips.

Researchers say their new, less wasteful tags could help reduce the retail sector's reliance on RFID chips.
