Abstract

In this demo, we explore the critical role that power plays in the development of a mm-scale system. We argue that any practical deployment of a mm-scale system must have a significant energy harvesting component. We demo the newest M3 system, a self-contained, 1 mm3, energy-harvesting computing platform capable of short-range (order cm) wireless transmission. Finally, we present some of the M3's innovations that enable its current basic operation and discuss some of the open problems that remain before a smart dust network becomes operable.
