First
100% Costa Rican Microchip
Three professors from the Costa
Rican Institute of Technology
(TEC) and a graduate student
from the University of Costa
Rica (UCR) developed in Germany
the first microchip which is 100
percent Costa Rican.
According to the scientists, it
has applications in industry,
commerce, and bio-medicine.
"We are not doing weird things;
we are developing high
technology," said Paola Vega,
29, who developed smart labels
as part of the microchip.
She added that the idea is to
transfer that technology to
Costa Rica.
