Definition

the technology of creating machines or robots at or close to the microscopic scale of a nanometer (10−9 meters)

a robot that allows precision interactions with nanoscale objects, or can manipulate with nanoscale resolution

Researches done

largely in the research-and-development phase

some primitive molecular machines have been tested

Theory behind Nanobots

As robots can perform certain functions that humans cannot, thus why not have a microscopic robot performing microscopic tasks?

Necessary for very large numbers of them to work together to perform microscopic and macroscopic tasks

Approaches

Biochip Nubot Bacteria based

Biochip

Microarray, the dense, two-dimensional grid of biosensors, is the critical component of a biochip platform

Microarrays can be used for DNA, protein, chemical compound and antibody analysis

Nubot

Also known as “DNA machine” A DNA machine is a molecular

machine constructed from DNA Similar double helix structure like

the DNA strands

Bacteria based

uses a flagellum for propulsion purposes

use similar mechanisms as the biological microorganisms

Application of Nanobots

Medical technology, where they might be used to identify cancer cells and destroy them

Detection of toxic chemicals and the measurement of concentrations in the environment

Nanobot in medicine early diagnosis and targeted drug

delivery for cancer, biomedical instrumentation, surgery, monitoring of diabetes, and health care

employ nanobots injected into the patient to perform treatment on a cellular level

improve the presence of drug molecules where they are needed in the body and where they will do the most good

Removal of Cancer
