World's Smallest Implantable Computer
What is claiming the title of the world's smallest computer is actually a implantable device used to be put into the eye of suffering glaucoma patients. Using radio signals you hold a external device to download stored data about pressure levels. Although it seems like cutting edge technology from researchers at the University of Michigan it still seems like it'll will be quite a bit of time before this it tested on patients. Using a feature called "extreme sleep mode" the power consumption of this minuscule device is extremely low and doesn't need bulky processors and parts as do other complicated computers. The system is said to wake every 15 minutes to take pressure measurements then return to sleep mode and is rechargeable using indoor light.
