The Application relates to optically transparent electrostatic transducers. In some embodiments, the transducers comprise graphene. Such transducers are capable of functioning as acoustic sensors and/or transmitters as a singulated device or in an array configuration. Also provided are methods of manufacturing and using such transducers.

Transparent electrostatic transducers

Described are micro electrostatic transducers and methods of making such devices. The micro electrostatic transducer is an integrated component transducing device fabricated from materials allowing for low cost, high volume manufacturing. The device includes a sheet of graphene forming the diaphragm with two electrode layers above and below the diaphragm to introduce the audio signal.

High volume manufacturing of micro electrostatic transducers

A robotic system with a common software and hardware platform for integration of a variety of modular components is provided that can be set up for a given application and reconfigured to address changing needs. Modules attach to the robotic platform with standard interfaces in order to maximize the platform's flexibility. Robotic arms also have interchangeability such as variable pitched Z-racks, powder handling or other technologies. The standard interfaces allow third party developers to develop and integrate their own custom modules. One module included with the robotic platform in accord with this invention is a module that both weighs and images a sample.
