The Nanobots Are Coming
Abstract:
Hat tip to Foresight's Nanodot blog for this pointer to an interesting PC Magazine article. Here's the scoop:
Carnegie Mellon University is building micro-bots with an eye toward nano-bots. According to the article, the CMU lab has a diverse set of equipment for fabricating and studying microscale structures. They are currently working on swimming and water-walking robots, with bacterial motors attached. The robots are micro, but the motors are nano -- an interesting hybrid.
