Although nanorobots may play critical roles for many applications in the human body such as targeting tumoral lesions for therapeutic purposes, miniaturization of the power source with an effective onboard controllable propulsion and steering system have prevented the implementation of such mobile robots. Here, we show that the flagellated nanomotors combined with the nanometer-sized magnetosom...

This paper presents an innovative hardware architecture for medical nanorobots, using nanobioelectronics, clinical data, and wireless technologies, as embedded integrated system devices for molecular machine data transmission and control upload, and show how to use it in cancer therapy. The therapeutic application of nanorobots for cancer may be the natural result from some ongoing developments...

Micro/nanorobots are promising for a wide range of biomedical applications (such as targeted tumor, thrombus, and infection therapies in hard-to-reach body sites) because their tiny size high maneuverability through the actuation external fields (e.g., magnetic field, light, ultrasound, electric and/or heat). However, fully synthetic micro/nanorobots foreign objects susceptible to phagocytosis ...

Nanotechnology refers to the control and manipulation (10 -9 m) of matter at nanometer dimension. Although the nanoscale is small in size, its potential is vast. Nanodentistry will make possible the maintenance of comprehensive oral health by employing nanomaterials and ultimately, dental nanorobots. This article is a review, which describes about the potential use of nanotechnology in the fiel...

This paper presents a molecular mechanics study using a molecular dynamics software (NAMD) coupled to virtual reality techniques for intuitive bio-nanorobotic prototyping. Using molecular dynamic simulations the operator can design, characterize and prototype the behavior of bio-nanorobotic components and structures. The main novelty of the proposed simulations is based on the characterization ...

Nanorobotics is a modern technological sector that creates robots with elements are close to or near the nanoscale scale of such nanometer. To be more specific, nanorobotics has been nanotechnology approach designing and creating nanorobots. Also, fast growth robotics technology, developing biomaterials micro- nanorobots, which convert biological concepts into robotic device, grows progressivel...

The advancement of science is leading humanity to a new aeon: the era of nanotechnology. In simple terms, it refers to the technology exercised on materials at molecular level (less than 100 nanometers) (1). Foundation stone of this looming phase in dentistry was laid by Richard Feynman in 1959, a noble prize winning physicist (1). Nanotechnology has brought upon exorbitant changes in all persp...

DNA nanostructures constitute attractive devices for logic computing and nanomechanics. An emerging interest is to integrate these two fields and devise intelligent DNA nanorobots. Here we report a reversible logic circuit built on the programmable assembly of a double-stranded (ds) DNA [3]pseudocatenane that serves as a rigid scaffold to position two separate branched-out head-motifs, a bimole...
