Abstract

Electronic devices, apparatus, systems, and methods of operating and constructing the devices, apparatus, and/or systems include a wireless sensor configured to measure strain of hardware implanted in a subject. In various embodiments, temporal measurement of the hardware strain includes monitoring changes of the resonant frequency of the sensor. The sensor can be realized as an inductively powered device that operates as an all-on-chip resonator, where the components of the sensor are biocompatible. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
