In the 1990s, Dr. Kris Pister dreamed up a future in which people would sprinkle the Earth with countless tiny sensors, no larger than grains of rice. These "smart dust" particles, as he called them, would monitor everything, acting like electronic nerve endings for the planet. Fitted with computing power, sensing equipment, wireless radios and long battery life, the smart dust would make observations and relay mountains of real-time data about people, cities and the natural environment.

Wireless sensor networks on the street know which parking spots are free and will direct you straight to a free space. Then the city uses that real-time information for dynamic meter pricing, discouraging driving when car traffic is too high. San Francisco is already trying the idea. If it works, it will be good for motorists, for the city, and for the environment.
