Commercializing MEMS - too fast or too slow

摘要

MEMS as a technology base is coming of age, but as in any vital process growing pains occur. Commercializing MEMS is simultaneously viewed as agonizingly slow by many of its promoters and lightingly quick by many companies whose products are being replaced with MEMS based substitutes. This effort ties current efforts in market analysis, technology evaluations, competency based strategy in an effort to understand the pace of MEMS commercialization.
