What Is Nanotechnology??
Nanotechnology (sometimes shortened to "nanotech") is the

What is Robotics??
Robotics is related to the sciences of, engineering, electronics,
the place of humans in dangerous environments or manufacturing processes, or resemble humans in appearance, behavior, and/or cognition.
machines or robots whose components are at or close to the scale of a nanometers. (109 meters).
Another definition is a robot that allows precision interactions
been used to describe these devices currently under research and development.
officially released a finished product in terms of a nanorobot that functions on an entirely mechanical basis.
Nanorobots are essentially an adapted machine version of
bacteria. They are designed to function on the same scale as both bacteria and common viruses in order to interact with and repel them from the human system.
So the best way to create a nanobot is to use another nanobot.
one by one until they had spelled out their companys name.
In doing so they not only created the smallest business logo in
history, but also discovered for themselves just how long and grueling the process of hand-building even a single nanobot would be.
are far more complicated in design and need to be engineered in such a way that they are autonomous.
The ideal nanobot consists of 1. A transporting mechanism 2. An internal processor 3. A fuel unit of some kind that enables it to function.
conventional forms of robotic propulsion cant be shrunk to nanoscale with current technology.
particles to the nanobots body. As the particles decay and release energy the nanobot would be able to harness this power source; radioactive film can be enlarged or reduced to any scale without a drop in efficiency occurring.
one way in relatively large quantities and a completely different way on the nanoscalein fact, this is the entire basis for nanotechnology as a discipline.
transducers; they are encountering slight problems in agreeing on what the final shape of the standard nanobot should be.
Best Design??
The nanobot needs to be fast, aerodynamic and smooth-moving
many nanorobot researchers also think that a smaller version of the centipede might be best.
Miracle Performer!!
They will also possibly be used to perform miracle functions
Applications!! (Medical)
KIDNEY STONES By introducing a nanobot into the urethra in a manner similar to that of inserting a catheter, direct access to the kidney stones can be obtained, and they can be broken up directly.
BURN AND WOUND DEBRIDING The nanobots can also be used to clean wounds and burns. Their size allows them to be very useful for removing dirt and foreign particles from incised and punctured wounds, as well as from burns. They can be used to do a more complete and less traumatic job than conventional techniques.
Applications!! (Medical)
PARASITE REMOVAL The nanobots can also be used to attack other life forms in the body. As the sensor technology improves, they could be used to attack various bacteria and other smaller organisms as well, although this would probably require the introduction of large numbers of the units into the body.
ANTIBODIES In essence, this would be creating artificial antibodies, and while this is the logical extrapolation of the technology, it will not happen for some time.
Applications!! ( In Space)
Nanorobots can be used to actively repair damaged suit
using nanobots.
Applications!! ( In Military)
Nanobots raises the possibility of horrifically effective
weapons. As an example, the smallest insect is about 200 microns; this creates a plausible size estimate for a nanotechnology-built antipersonnel weapon capable of seeking and injecting toxin into unprotected humans.
The human lethal dose of botulism toxin is about 100
nanograms, or about 1/100 the volume of the weapon. As many as 50 billion toxin-carrying devicestheoretically enough to kill every human on earthcould be packed into a single suitcase.
Applications!! ( In Military)
Guns of all sizes would be far more powerful, and their bullets
could be self-guided.
Aerospace hardware would be far lighter and higher
performance; built with minimal or no metal, it would be much harder to spot on radar.
Embedded computers would allow remote activation of any
weapon, and more compact power handling would allow greatly improved robotics.
about nanotechnology, Engines of Creation. In one section of the book, Drexler speculates about what could happen if we created self-reproducing nanobots.
If they got out of control, they could conceivably use the
resources of the entire planet to replicate in an exponential manner akin to bacterial replication.
Every living creature, every useful mineral, would be
Disadvantages!!
Nanorobot particles will penetrate living cells and accumulate
invasion.
Changing the structure of material on the nano level without
understanding, we risk creating a whole world of materials that have atoms that actually do not fit together cohesively.
Can be used as a weapon.
Conclusion!!
Nanorobotics is one of the emerging fields in technology and
robotics. Nanorobotics is the technology of creating machines or robots at or close to the scale of a nanometer (10-9 meters).
More specifically, nanorobotics refers to the still largely
