Abstract
Microsystem technology introduces a new way of integration of sensors, actuators, and information processing components resulting in flexible, adaptive, and intelligent systems similar to those created by nature. The paper attempts to give a general idea of what is feasible with this technology. After a short introduction, the key technologies for the fabrication of microsystems are described and illustrated by several examples of present day applications
