Keith Schwab: watching me, watching you

Nanotechnology engineers materials at the scale of atoms and molecules. And what that means is that as the science advances, electronic devices — including those for surveillance and record-keeping — will get much smaller and more powerful.
Keith Schwab of Cornell University talked about this and more as part of a Fred Friendly Seminars series being broadcast on public television stations in 2008. The series title is Nanotechnology: The Power of Small.
