Here are a few more pictures from the Texas Tech MEMS lab with Dr. Tim Dallas and his student Ashwin Vijaysai. They were showing me on the computer screen the 1mm x 1mm chess set.

Way too awesome.
“Way too awesome.”
Is it awesome? Or just nonsense? Who knows…
Hmm, if it was not just a chess board but a chess computer….. 😉
Just imagine – over 200,000 micro-chess boards covering your regular chess board!
The micro chess set will fit on the top of a pin. Here is a another way to put the size of this micro chess set into normal context. On a regular chess board the squares are 58 mm per side or 3,364 mm squared. Given 64 squares we have 215,296 mm squared. In other words you could put 215,296 micro-chess boards on top of a regular chess board! Dr. Dallas reached a similar number in his calculations when we visited him at the lab.
