MEMS and Candy

Air Signatures, Death Star Candies, and Other Things We Love

In honor of Valentine’s Day next week, Fish Fry is all about love. From our love of sugary Death Star-shaped treats to our love of MEMS-enabled devices. This week my guest is Bryan Hoadley (President – Movea). Bryan and I get into to the nitty gritty details of the Movea Lab and Bryan gives me a special demonstration of their air signature technology. We’re also delving into the world of specialized Valentine’s Day treats this week, and pick our favorite gift for that special geeky someone in your life. 

I’m giving everyone the chance to win a LaunchPad Evaluation kit courtesy of Texas Instruments, but you’ll have to listen to find out how to enter to win.
