About

Diego P. Morales is a leading researcher at the intersection of printed electronics, radio-frequency identification (RFID), and the Internet of Things (IoT), with a particular focus on sustainable agriculture. His most-cited work, "Printed RFID sensing system: The cost-effective way to IoT smart agriculture" (2025, 9 citations), addresses the critical challenge of feeding a growing global population amid climate change and resource scarcity. Morales’s major contribution lies in demonstrating how low-cost, printed RFID sensors can make IoT-driven precision agriculture economically viable, enabling real-time monitoring of soil, crops, and environmental conditions. By merging flexible electronics with wireless sensing, his research paves the way for scalable, eco-friendly solutions that reduce waste and optimize resource use. Beyond this flagship paper, his broader portfolio explores the integration of printed components into autonomous, battery-free systems, pushing the boundaries of ubiquitous sensing. Morales’s work has already garnered attention for its potential to democratize smart farming, offering a blueprint for transforming traditional agriculture into a data-driven, resilient industry. His achievements underscore a commitment to tackling global food security through innovative, accessible technology.
