2010-01-19 The first Comb-drive experiment in SUT Thailand (Winai Wanburee SUT-SLRI)
This video shows the first comb-drive actuator experiment in Suranaree University of Technology, Thailand performed on Tuesday 19th January 2010. This electrostatically driven comb-drive actuator had 19 fingers of rotor with 30 microns width of each finger. It was fabricated by synchrotron x-ray lithography technique at micromachining lab, the Synchrotron Light Research Institute, Thailand by [...]
Spherical Micro Resonator by UC Irvine MicroSystems Laboratory
UCI MicroSystems Laboratory (http://mems.eng.uci.edu/) are focused on development of MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) sensors and actuators based on novel design concepts. Current research projects on Conventional and 3D MEMS Inertial Sensors (gyroscopes and accelerometers) involve design, modeling, fabrication, characterization, control system and sensing electronics design, and integration of advanced sensor systems. In this video we demonstrate [...]
MEMS Flow Sensors
tinyurl.com – This tutorial, provided by Digi-Key and Omron, discusses Omrons use of MEMS (micro electro mechanical systems) in mass flow sensors for gases. The various products and their basic operation are presented along with their features, benefits, and applications. Duration : 0:0:55
Swiss Microrobot Playing “Pac Man” I
A gold/nickel microrobot of 300x300x70 micrometer (10^-6 m) dashing through a maze of photoresist walls. The robot is controlled by visual servoing, ie the user clicks a spot and the computer steers it there. The robot and required system was built by a team of researches at ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) and [...]
What are MEMs?
MEMs are a new form of circuit breaker that respond to changes in voltage in microseconds instead of the current milliseconds. They are being developed by GE. Duration : 0:1:17
Micro Machines Go Wild for Utah Running Utes!
A MEMS (micro electro mechanical system) device designed by University of Utah students and faculty to tap into charge injected by an electron microscope as a new form of “Kinetic Micro Sculpture”. Under electron beam illumination, the U (about the same size as the diameter of a silky-fine hair on your head) appears to “blink” [...]
