Microsystems exploit micro-level technology to deliver system-level performance. Digital cameras are a good example of this concept, as tiny circuits in each pixel of an image sensor, and their support systems, are responsible for photographic capabilities. Digital cameras also provide a motivation for this research program. Because image sensors add billions of dollars in value to consumer, defence, industrial, and medical applications, research progress in pixel design could lead to a multi-million dollar impact.

微系统利用微级技术来提供系统级性能。数码相机是这一概念的一个很好的例子，因为图像传感器每个像素中的微小电路及其支持系统负责摄影功能。数码相机也为这项研究计划提供了动力。由于图像传感器为消费者、国防、工业和医疗应用增加了数十亿美元的价值，因此像素设计的研究进展可能会带来数百万美元的影响。
