Speaking with Mark from rLab at the recent Reading tech group meetup, we were discussing “MEMS” or “Microelectromechanical systems”
These are tiny mechanical systems on chips.

These devices are available for us all to play with now! Nanotech is with us. I’m getting old!

There is a gathering of local tech/creative groups on Tuesday 13th August at the Walkabout pub (upstairs) in the centre of Reading, Friar st.
Wiston Terrace (off Friar Street) Reading RG1 1DG

The aim is to promote awareness of all the good stuff going on in Reading.

- Agile Valley
- British Computer Society (Reading Branch)
