MEMS, tiny micro-electromechanical systems that function as miniature machines, are showing up in all facets of our daily lives. While much attention has been paid to applications like the iPhone, there are many more consumer applications fueling this $10 billion, and rapidly growing, MEMS market. From accelerometers and gyros that 'interpret' motion, to magnetic compasses, microphones and digital displays, MEMS are dramatically improving the user experience and creating a new world of opportunities in consumer electronics.
