Micro-meta-structures for computational sensors with built-in memory
Sensory input in integrated systems is expected to increase with the entrance of AI and Internet-of-Things, requiring systems to become efficient and autonomous. The proposed research aims to introduce and study a new type of smart structure, dubbed meta-structures (MS), composed of repeating a unit cell to create a structure with new abilities such as multistability, non-volatility, and configurability. Such structures can be used to design autonomous sensors with built-in memory and computational abilities, allowing the formation of a new class of smart micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) with edge computation and in-memory programming (IMP). In the aggregate, such smart sensors can…
