Smart dust is a wireless network of tiny sensors that autonomously collect and transmit data from their environment. Each “mote” of these micro-electromechanical systems are about the size of a grain of sand and can detect external stimuli such as light, temperature, movement, sound, chemicals and air pressure in real time. Their small size and lightweight, silicon construction allows them to suspend in the air, like dust.
