Electrochromic orbit control for smart-dust devices

Recent advances in MEMS (micro electromechanical systems) technology are leading to spacecraft which are the shape and size of computer chips, so-called SpaceChips, or 'smart dust devices'. These devices can offer highly distributed sensing when used in future swarm applications. However,...
