Computers are becoming less and less exponentially. American engineers from the University of Michigan have created a device that has all the rights to be considered the smallest computer in the world. The new Michigan Micro Mote (or M3) was created for use in the field of “Internet of things” (IOT), and its dimensions make up only 1 cubic millimeter, which is thousands of times smaller than the first computers that occupied entire rooms.
As the developers note, the M3 is not just a miniature sensor, but a whole computing unit with support for wireless technologies, memory, an image of the image with low resolution, temperature sensor, an on-board CMOS TEMIRER and even a battery. The latter, by the way, is charged with solar energy. All this is hardly believed when the device is in front of my eyes, ten times smaller than a regular coin.
The creators of the M3 are sure that their miniature computer can significantly accelerate the development of the “Internet of things”, the main concept of which is to allow all electronics – from home bulbs to industrial devices – to interact with each other.
