An Exapmple of the Future of Semi Industry, Smallest Complete System

This is an example of a direction future foundries may be turning out, complete systems and not just pieces. I feel the future of foundries with shrink coming to an end, will be to make complete systems of many types that incorporate their deep skill set in a range of nanotechnologies to build complete systems for customers. This will include devices such as the one listed and micro robots among others. This will provide a very long and deep runway for the industry that helps everyone by fully utilizing their massive skill set, tooling, supply chain and the complex ecosystem that brings all these resources and more together. This is about simple economics and utilization of ecosystems, employees and all other resources in the most efficient manner to spread costs in such a way that they latest technology and applications can be made available at a price low enough to allow wide spread adoption. TSM among others, are sitting on massive stores of wealth just waiting to tapped and change the world in ways most haven't even imagined, it's time to reach out and grab it.
