About this listen
In this episode, Jen & Nick journey into the fascinating microscopic world of smart dust, and look at how it could change our world. They explore tiny wireless microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) that collect and transmit data from their surroundings. Originally designed for military use, these rice-grain-sized sensors are now finding applications in agriculture, environmental monitoring, healthcare, and even infrastructure assessment. Nick & Jen discuss their groundbreaking potential, the challenges of miniaturization and power sources, and the pressing concerns around privacy. With the global market for smart dust poised for significant growth, join us as we unpack the future of these miniature marvels and their impact across industries.
