PET has confirmed production of a new form of a data-retaining sensor which has the potential to act as an authentication tool in the health care industry, verifying or negating the identity of everything from patients to even test strips for blood glucose monitors for diabetics. PET has been developing this so-called 'Printed Memory' technology for over five years and uses 3D printing, ink and thin circuitry printed to a Xerox substrate to produce the sensors.
