What a cool nerdy explanation video of Micro-electro-mechanical devices- #mems devices - in this case #gyroscope and #accelerometer in your phone. So cool.
In a past life, I worked in the commercialization office of a university, selling rights to our patents. A good chunk of them were MEMS devices - and it was always delightful to learn about these microscopic innovations.

TIL, How MEMS devices help measure acceleration and orientation in electronics.
Silicon is coming for speakers - or, at least, wireless earbuds.
Recent innovation in MEMS audio had led to innovative audio products that are produced with semiconductor manufacturing methods. Some are even floating the use of micro-speakers as "audio pixels" to challenge hifi speakers.
I spoke with mastering engineer Brian Lucey and Menlo Scientific President Mike Klasco about how this rapidly improving technology could disrupt audio.

Latest #MEMS micro-mirror article is out from our great MEMS designers (my part was on the fabrication of these mirrors). https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10064333

This video about MEMS IMUs by @breakingtaps is amazing!
Stunning electron microscope images and a really well done hands on explanation of how these intricate devices work!
(Amazing SEM image of an MPU6050 shown in the video!)

En conjunt m'agrada més la versió web de #Mastodon que l'APP #Megalodon, però m'agrada que Megalodon mostre el botó del text descriptiu de les imatges (o un avís de l'absència del mateix).
Segur que moltes persones estareu fartes de llegir-ho, però crec que val molt la pena afegir el text descriptiu. Més encara si les imatges són #mems que ja venen d'altre lloc i ni s'ha gastat temps en fer-los.
Love this episode

Behold! A Macro Micro Electromechanical System! Only the most precise plastic sensors from Breaking Taps Macrofab Foundry!
(Vacuum hot-filament ionization gauge for scale, I guess 😅)

I apologize for the spam but... just look at it! I never knew a macro-MEMs model would be so cool 😍😍😍
Excited to see the rest of the chip printed out! The other two gyros should be very interesting because they oscillate out-of-plane (ditto to the z accelerometer)

Ja me n'oblidava!
Que avui és #DIMECRES, cabronts!!

3ax accelerometer/gyro chip. Composite of 3 different chips that I decapped. Didn't get a complete view of top right unfortunately.
I thought the bottom was accel at first, but thinking they are gyros now? Dual mass vibrating kind? Lack of combs on the top devices is throwing me, just a few plates that I can see.
There are "pits" or cutouts under two of the three devices under the bottom, which is contributing to my feeling they are gyros (to help allow coriolis distortion)
