Step 1
1 of 2

1.)\textbf{1.)}Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS, also written as micro-electro-mechanical, MicroElectroMechanical or microelectronic and microelectromechanical systems and the related micromechatronics) is the technology of very small devices; it merges at the nano-scale into nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) and nanotechnology.

2.)\textbf{2.)}Some common commercial applications of MEMS include:

Inkjet printers, which use piezoelectrics or thermal bubble ejection to deposit ink on paper.

3.)\textbf{3.)}Accelerometers in modern cars for a large number of purposes including airbag deployment and electronic stability control.

4.)\textbf{4.)}Silicon pressure sensors e.g., car tire pressure sensors, and disposable blood pressure sensors.

5.)\textbf{5.)}Displays e.g., the digital micromirror device (DMD) chip in a projector based on DLP technology, which has a surface with several hundred thousand micromirrors or single micro-scanning-mirrors also called microscanners.

6.)\textbf{6.)}Optical switching technology, which is used for switching technology and alignment for data communications. Fluid acceleration such as for micro-cooling.
