Annual Symposium Synopsys
As MEMS become key components in pervasive computational systems,
microsystem designs are evolving from "stand alone" components to
systemically conceptualised application packages. Designers and
engineers are beginning to work closely with medics, artists,
environmental scientists and other end users to produce holistically
designed systems for novel application areas. Recent extraordinary
developments include using sense data as a basis for motion capture in
new media arts, in-body sensing with radio telemetry and planetary
exploration. These add to the impressive array of applications already
in common currency, such as environmental sensing, object tracking
with RFID and mobile office environments.
This symposium concerns the radical and big thinking required to
deliver new capabilities based on microsystem technologies. We are
interested in reporting on research and technology which addresses the
following challenges:
- MEMS design and integration
- MEMS components, such as RF and optical subsystems
- Sensor and actuator systems -- design and applications
- Signal processing associated with MEMS devices
- Smart and intelligent sensors
- RFID technology and applications
- MEMS markets and economic drivers
- Novel application areas for MEMS, such as in-body sensing, pervasive gaming and the creative arts
We look forward to receiving your submission.
Conference Activities
For this year’s Sensors and Systems we have designed a wide variety of
activities which we hope will create a hothouse for new and exciting
ideas in MEMS research and development. Along side oral and poster
presentations we will have keynotes and invited talks, graduate
student activities and workshops (all included in the conference
fee). More details will posted on the conference website.

Submit Proposal or Comment to Committee Chair
We encourage you to participate and to submit your interest as either an
Scientific Committee Member or to organize a Scientific Committee*. The
NSTI will provide the infrastructure for each Industrial Committee to
organize and present a focused Symposium at the annual Nanotech
Conference and Trade Show (Nanotech 2008,
Boston, Massachusetts, June 1-5, 2008). Details will be provide upon approval of
proposal.
* All submissions will be reviewed by the NSTI Scientific Committee
Chairs and a timely response will be issued.
