摘要： Methods for Implementation of a Switching Function in a Microscale Device and for Fabrication of a Microscale Switch. According to one embodiment, a method is provided for implementing a switching function in a microscale device. The method can include providing a stationary electrode and a stationary contact formed on a substrate. Further, a movable microcomponent suspended above the substrate can be provided. A voltage can be applied between the between a movable electrode of the microcomponent and the stationary electrode to electrostatically couple the movable electrode with the stationary electrode, whereby the movable component is deflected toward the substrate and a movable contact moves into contact with the stationary contact to permit an electrical signal to pass through the movable and stationary contacts. A current can be applied through the first electrothermal component to produce heating for generating force for moving the microcomponent.

摘要： According to one aspect, the subject matter described herein includes a MEMS fixed capacitor and a method for fabricating the MEMS fixed capacitor. The MEMS fixed capacitor can include a first stationary, capacitive plate on a substrate. Further, the MEMS fixed capacitor can include a non-conductive, stationary beam suspended above the substrate. The MEMS fixed capacitor can also include a second stationary, capacitive plate spaced a predetermined distance from the first stationary, capacitive plate for producing a predetermined capacitance between the capacitive plates

摘要： Systems and methods are provided to provide enhanced social networking to users of remote computing devices. Users of the disclosed system are able to interact with other participants in real-time and in relation to experiencing live or recorded media content. The system receives audio data that is captured by the user's device, wherein the audio data includes a processed or unprocessed audio sample of the media content being viewed by the user. The audio sample is compared to a database containing audio samples from a number of media programs to determine whether a match exists. If a match is found, the system determines other participants who are, at the same time, viewing the matched media program and establishes a connection between each of them. The connection enables participants to exchange real-time messages, participate in polls, and receive offers.
