Bosch’s Light Drive module is a sole source, technology stack that consists of microelectromechanical sensors (MEMS) mirrors, optical elements, on-board processing and other sensors. The goal of the technology is to give users a clean visual experience with bright images even in direct sunlight. Smartglasses using the technology could allow ...
The performance of microelectronic devices will depend on a better understanding of the thermophysical properties of the various materials used in the microelectronics. At the University of Texas at Arlington, the team of Dr. Ankur Jain, who heads the ...
People are looking for smaller, more power-efficient, and higher sound-quality hearing aids, and MEMS microphones are well-positioned to meet those expectations. Over 5% of the world’s population — or 466 million people — have disabling hearing loss, and more than 900 million people — one in every 10 people — are expected to have ...
Nathanson’s achievements include a microscopic device used as a tuner for microelectric radios, which became the first device in the MEMS field. Karen Lightman, executive director of Metro 21 at CMU, met Nathanson about 20 years ago, around the formation of the MEMS industry. “He played a huge role in helping transition this technology from ...
Some of the most vibrantly colored creatures in the animal kingdom don't owe their amazing colors to pigment. Instead, they cover themselves with microscopic structures that fine tune the way they reflect light. Now, these animals are inspiring a new generation of nanotechnology. Understanding why these structures occur in nature, and how we ...
