From repairing deadly brain bleeds to tackling tumors with precise chemotherapy, micro/nano-robots (MNRs) are a promising, up-and-coming tool that have the power to substantially advance health care.

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from Tohoku University and Kyoto University have successfully developed a DNA-based molecular controller that autonomously directs the assembly and disassembly of molecular ...

Vehicles and buildings designed to enable survival in extreme environments, such as spacecraft, submarines and sealed shelters, heavily rely on systems for the management of carbon dioxide (CO 2).

The capability to observe and manipulate matter at the nanoscale has advanced significantly since Richard Feynman first envisioned atomically precise manufacturing. Nano-manipulation technologies now ...

Researchers have created microscopic robots so small they’re barely visible, yet smart enough to sense, decide, and move completely on their own. Powered by light and equipped with tiny computers, the ...

This is Claytronics, a concept technology “formed by billions of microscopic robots, each with computational abilities and sensors that enable interaction.” In theory, it will allow you to create 3D ...
