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，因为图像传感器的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。
