MicroElectroMechanical Systems

Welcome to MicroElectroMechanical Systems.  Micro-electromechanical Systems are made up of components between 1 to 100 micrometres in size. They usually consist of a central unit that processes data, the microprocessor and several components that interact with the outside – such as microsensors. At these size scales, the standard constructs of classical physics do not always hold true. MEMS devices include pressure sensors, accelerometers, gyroscopes, microphones, and digital mirror displays.

The global market for microelectromechanical systems is into the mult-billions of dollars, with some estimates close to 100 billion dollars. Some of the most popular MEMS product applications includes automobile airbag systems, display and monitoring systems, as well as inkjet cartridges.

Thanks for visiting and supporting Microelectromechanical Systems, MEMS.

   Thanks for this insightful blog. Sometimes, the very best tips come from the sites one would not expect. So far, I did not give much thought to leaving comments on web log posts and have left comments even less. Checking out your useful post, may very well encourage me to do so more regularly.
