Welcome to Gaia! :: nanobots

can they do so?
to small what m thinking of is curcuit

This whole thread makes my head hurt.

Nanobots don't neccessarily have to self replicate- in fact, that seems like a very bad idea if we plan on putting them inside of us.

To quakehead- I think you meant overlord
To PaperWingedEngel- a nanobot that has the only task being to reproduce would not be very usefull, and industry would not support such frivilous things
To Aguro06- I think you meant 'cook' food
To Aguro06 again- If they dissolve- as long as they arn't made of anything which is harmfull, it could be perfectly fine- neutritious, even.

yes it still inprogress
Japan is working hard on it
and also on humanoid but they are having too many problems

for now it looks like a science fiction
but the research is still going on
nanobots are just specualtion

HOWEVER i saw this on discovery that we were able to make small bots who would do there work
they r suppose to get in body through blood through injection and after doing work
they were suppose to be flushed within 24 hours(more if transit time is high)

we were able to made a virus in lab'
yes it is considered to be dead but

nanobots,i dont think they will be able to make more of themself
where we will feed the data of how to do things?

we might probably send data through photons and energy through microwave(not the one u use to c**k food)

but i dont think they will be able to make

to where we get such small ic or chio for it to work?

a nanobot is essentually a virus. something small on a molecular level that preforms one task, and that is make more of itself. Viruses aren't even alive they have to make more of themselves, and can't self reproduce at all. the same way a nanobot would. so essentiually Nature beat us in making nanobots. ^^

I wasn't aware that nano robotics were possible yet.

hhehehehe wahmbulance emo whee

i read about nanobots and i want to discuss a few things

though their researching the possibility of nanobots, that allot of scientists are afraid of them? Thats because according to them, a nanobot can only do one or two things, and their afraid they can't shut them down, you see a nanobot can be made with any material since their on a molecular level and that means that they'll never run out of resources or energy.

A nanobot could be programmed to make more of its kind which on turn can make more aswell, this is what frightens them, what if they made a nanobot that makes more of itself and something goes wrong and they can't stop them anymore, but other scientists think this is bullocks and say that these same nanobots could be used to heal someone in mere seconds, even internal problems could be solved without an operation.


though they are just like robots
but you know that if we send our most powerful computer for exploration then there mind is as small as an insect(the dufferest one)i watched this on discovery

and if we talk of a nano one
scientifically it really doesnt feel so
yes maybe if we keep him in a place from where we can send him signal through light(jus like phones,net)


but about this idea of healing
i remember this on discovery

BUT IT IS ALSO TO BE NOTICED THE MATERIAL TO BE USED
it said that the best area shall be blood cells
and through here we can transfer them wherever we want

i remember a documentary on cure cancer that in future we shall use nanobots to heal them
ofcourse they r easy to transfer but we have millions of cells which get affected i didnt find it to be practical but still...



about nanobots this is said that they can me made from any molecule but
we cant take molecules of such compound which is not an conductor
i mean these are robots they do need to tranfer of data and electricity in them to flowin order to work isnt it?

secondly it was said that energy shall be from collision of atoms, a nanobot would be small enough to tap into this small amount of energy, and since their so small they don't need much energy either.

but
if atom strike, the electron loses their path and go to higher energy level and then back to normal and it also emit photons
and we will have static electricity

the energy above talked might be this static electricity

but can we use static electricity to run electrical things??
