Little windmill makes big changes!

Jung-chih chiao is a professor at the University of Texas. He created a windmill that is only 1.8 millimeters! About 10 of them could be put into a grain of rice. Each individual windmill is a three bladed, 1.8 millimeter diameter rotor. It is put on a 2 millimeter tower. It can even withstand very strong winds! The researchers have came up with a process that is almost the same as the one used to manufacture micro semiconductors; they are used in everyday electronics. The good part is that the makers of  these windmills are brainstorming with Talwanese about selling these to the market! So hopefully, we will all eventually own a windmill charger!
