Stretchcam is a thin camera with a lens capable of zooming with small actuations. In our design, an elastic lens array is placed on top of a sparse, rigid array of pixels. This lens array is then stretched using a small mechanical motion in order to change the field of view of the system. We present in this paper the characterization of such a system and simulations which demonstrate the capabi...

Wafer bonding has been widely used for forming vacuum and hermetic packages for MEMS devices. Several techniques, including anodic silicon-glass, silicon-silicon fusion, metal compression, glass frit, eutectic, and solder bonding have been attempted and some have been demonstrated successfully. Solders have some advantages that make them an interesting area of research for wafer bonding. They o...
