WHAT IS NANOTECHNOLOGY ?

Interdisciplinary new technology (Engineering, Computer, Physics, Chemistry and Biology).

To build NEMS(nanometer-sized electromechanical structures):up-to-down and bottom-up strategies.

The key technology: the new device and theory to explore the nano world.

Virtual reality / automated planning to assist nanotechnology.

- judgments about manufacturing feasibility.

- assisting chemical and biological assembly analyses.

INVESTMENT IN NANOTECHNOLOGY:

The governments and industries all around the

globe: investing for a fast development of

nanotechnology.

Efforts to bring new nanoproducts: IBM,

Motorola, Philips Electronics, Xerox/PARC,

Hewlett-Packard, Bell Laboratories, and Intel

Corp., etc.

CONCEPT OF NANOROBOT:

Nanorobots would constitute any “smart” structure capable of actuation, sensing, signaling, information processing, intelligence, manipulation and swarm behavior at nano scale (10-9m).

Bio nanorobots – Nanorobots designed (and inspired) by harnessing properties of biological materials (peptides, DNAs), their designs and functionalities. These are inspired not only by nature but machines too.

Nanorobots could propose solutions at most of the nanomedicine problems.

ADVANTAGES OF NANOROBOT:

12

To convert house hold waste into fresh food, diamond rings or antique

works of art.

Robots in our blood streams fighting against AIDS HIV virus, genetic

disorders or even ageing.

We can create pollution free environment by having automatic clean

up systems of existing pollutants.

Human Surgery can be done with the help of nanorobots.

To detect and eradicate cancer cells & damages blood particles.

To be programmed for surgeries or remove obstructions in the

circulatory system.

Deliver medicines directly to the damaged cell/part of our body.

DISADVANTAGES OF NANOROBOT:

Changes in the nature-human relationship.

13

FUTURE CHALLENGES FOR NANOROBOTICS:

14

Assembly of a Fully Functional

Nanorobot.

Closed Loop Control and

Guidance at the Nano-Scale.

Wireless Communication at the

Nano- Scale – Data Transfer.

Power Generation at the

Nanoscale.

Accurate Modeling at the

Nanoscale.

Going Smaller and Smaller

(~100nm total). 14
