NANO TECHNOLOGY
Nanotechnology (sometimes shortened to "nanotech") is the study of manipulating matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally, nanotechnology deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometer in at least one dimension, and involves developing materials or devices within that size.
ROBOTICS
Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, structural disposition, manufacture and application of robots. Robotics is related to the sciences of, enginnering, electronics, mechanics and software
What is Nanorobotics?
Programmable assembly of nm-scale components either by manipulation with macro or micro devices, or by directed self-assembly.
Design and fabrication of robots with overall dimensions at or below the mm range and made of nm-scale components.
Programming and coordination of large numbers (swarms) of such nanorobots.
Known as nanorobot pioneer, adriano Cavalcanti is the medical nanorobotics inventor for the pratical hardware architecture of nanorobots, which was integrated as a model based on nanobioelectronics for applications in environmental monitoring, brain aneurysm, diabetes, cancer and cardiology. His advanced prototype provided a suitable integrated circuit approach, using an effective wireless platform
NANOBOT ISSUES
Sensors
Computers and Control
Actuators and Propulsion
Power
Communications
Interfaces and Integration
nano/micro/macro
organic/inorganic
biotic/abiotic
Programming and Coordination
Nanorobots raise all the issues that are important for NEMS
CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGN
Designs derived from biological models
Components: onboard sensors, motors, manipulators , power suppliers,molecular components
Best known biological sample is ribosome used to constuct robotic arm
Manipulator arm driven by detailed sequenc e of controlsignals
Control signals received by robotic arm via on board sensors using broadcast architecture
Assemblers are molecular machine system perform molecular manufacturing on atomic scale
APPLICATIONS IN MEDICAL FIELD
Breaking up blood clots
Fighting cancer
Parasite removal
Gout
Breaking up of kidney stones
Arterioscleriosis
Nanorobots might carry small ultrasonic signal generators to deliver frequencies directly to kidney stones
Nanorobots may treat conditions like arteriosclerosis by physically chipping away the plaque along artery walls
Microorganism Detection
Nanowire Detection of Algae in a Microchannel
NANO SENSORS
Provides realtime information about antibodies to antigens, cell receptors to their glands etc..
Used for drug detection
To detect chemical vapours at low concentation based on surface stress.
IN SPACE TECHNOLOGY
Nanorobots can be used to actively repair damaged suit materials while an astronaut is in the field
specialized Marssuit Repair Nanorobots (MRN). MRN nanorobots operate as space-fillingpolyhedra to repair damage to a Marssuit
Measurement of toxic elements in environment
NANOBOTS CAN MINE GARBAGE DUMPS
Nanobots are going to make it easier and cheaper to pull out, clean up and create useful commodities for us to reuse. And once you understand the vast potential for Nanotechnology, you are going to understand that our future is going to be so bright... it is going to be so ……….freakin' brilliant!
With 15,342 atoms, this parallel-shaft speed reducer gear is one of the largest nanomechanical devices ever modeled in atomic detail
ADVANTAGES
The microscopic size of nanomachines translates into high operational speed
individual units require only a tiny amount of energy to operate
Durability is another potential asset
nanites might last for centuries before breaking down
DISADVANTAGES
risk of cancer
may affect human health by introducing toxicity in blood
Replication may become out of control
