IT AND NANOBOTS • A REVOLUTIONARY AND FUTURISTIC CONCEPT WHEREIN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY WILL BE USED IN DIAGNOSING AND CURING DISEASES. • THIS IS THE CONCEPT OF NANOROBOTS (THE ACTUAL GADGETS ) AND NANOROBOTICS (THE SOFTWARE WHICH CONTROLS THE DEPLOYMENT AND TRANSPORT OF NANOROBOTS.
Nano Robotics NANOTECHNOLOGY+ROBOTICS • “Nanorobotics is the technology of creating machines or robots at or close to the microscopic scale of a nanometer (10−9 meters).”
What is a Nanobot???? • “Nanobot - A very small autonomous robot, typically the size of a biological cell, designed to work alone or in very large numbers to achieve some task. Not yet in practical use.” • Nanobots are incredibly tiny robots, down at a microscopic scale. The name comes from a combination of the nanometer, the scale the devices are built at, and robot
Nanorobot Control Design(NCD) • The nanorobot control design (NCD) software is a system designed to serve as a test bed for nanorobot 3-D prototyping • An advanced nanomechatronics simulator that provides physical and numerical information for nanorobot task based modeling. • Development platform for medical nanorobots investigations • Simulates the control dynamics of a nanorobot inside a human body
WHAT DOES NCD SOFTWARE DO? • Consists of modules that simulate the physical conditions inside a human body • Run the nanorobot control programs n determine their actions • Provide a visual display of the environment in 3D • Record the history of nanorobot behavior for later analysis
