Nanorobots can be defined as intelligent systems with overall dimensions at or below the micrometer range that are made of assemblies of nanoscale components with individual dimensions ranging between 1 to 100 nm. These devices can now perform a wide variety of tasks at the nanoscale in a wide variety of fields including but not limited to fields such as manufacturing, medicine, supply chain, biology, and aerospace. Nanorobotics: Current Approaches and Techniques offers a comprehensive overview of this emerging interdisciplinary field with a wide ranging discussion that includes nano-manipulation and industrial nanorobotics, nanorobotic manipulation in biology and medicine, nanorobotic sensing, navigation and swarm behavior and CNT, and protein and DNA-based nanorobotics.
Here is a comprehensive overview of nanorobotics that includes Nano-manipulation and industrial Nanorobotics, Nanorobotic manipulation in biology and medicine, Nanorobotic sensing, navigation and swarm behavior and CNT, protein and DNA based Nanorobotics.Section I: NanoRobotics: The Vision and Applications.- Introduction to NanoRobotics.- Nanomechanical Cantilever-Based Manipulation for Sensing and Imaging.- Swarms of Self-Organized Nanorobots.- Reservoir Nanoagents for In-Situ Sensing and Intervention.- Miniaturization and Micro/ Nanotechnology in Space Robotics.- Diamondoid Nanorobotics.- Section II: Nano-Manipulation and Industrial NanoRobotics.- Virtual Tooling for Nano Assembly and Nano Manipulations.- Nanorobotic Mass Transport.- Nanorobotic Manipulation of 1D Nanomaterials in Scanning Electron Microscopes.- Section III:?Nano-Manipulation in Biomedical Applications.- Nanorobotic Manipulation and Sensing for Biomedical Applications.- Nanohandling of Bio-Materials.- Apply Robot-Tweezer Manipulation to Cell Stretching for Biomechanical Characterization.- Section IV: Inside the Body Nanorobotic Applications.- Propulsion and Navigation Control of MRI-Guided DrlC.
