You've probably encountered MEMS in your everyday life and you may
not have realized it. Because of their reliability and small size,
MEMS devices were first used in automobile airbag systems, compact
computer display projectors, and inkjet printers. A MEMS accelerometer
tells all car airbags when to deploy, a MEMS mirror array creates
the dazzling clarity of many modern projectors, and a MEMS nozzle
allows inkjet printers to create high-definition print.
