Nanobots will be inside everyone by 2030

Nanotechnology sounds like a futuristic development, but we already have it in the form of CPU manufacturing. More advanced nanotech could be used to create independent mobile entities like nanobots. One of the main challenges is selecting the right chemicals, elements, and structures that actually perform a desired task. Currently, we create more chemically oriented than computationally oriented nanobots, but we still have to deal with the quantum effects at tiny scale. One of the most important applications of nanotechnology is to create nanomedicine, where the technology interacts with biology to help resolve problems. Of course, the nanobots have to be compatible with the body (e.g. no poisonous elements if they were broken down, etc). We dive into an interesting study on creating nanobarrels to deliver a particular payload within the bloodstream (currently in animals, but eventually in humans). This study is able to deliver RNA to cancer cells that shuts them down, without affecting the rest of the body. This type of application is why the market for nanotechnology keeps growing and will have a substantial impact on medicine in the future. #nanotech #nanobots #medicine DNA origami nanobots – The University of Sydney Nano Institute ASU scientists have successfully programmed nanorobots to shrink tumors by cutting off their blood supply Nanorobotics: Precision Healthcare of the Future Nanomedicine: Promising Tiny Machine for the Healthcare in Future-A Review Q&A: Nanobots could explore human cells – but their size is an engineering challenge The Use of Nanorobotics in the Treatment Therapy of Cancer and Its Future Aspects: A Review #!/ Three Ways Nanotechnology Is Changing The Healthcare Industry 0:00 Intro 0:20 Contents 0:26 Part 1: What is nanotechnology? 0:35 Nanometers 0:59 CPU manufacturing is nanotech 1:40 However, CPUs are static (no movement) 2:07 Nanobots vs microbots 2:52 Nanofactories 3:33 Nano-scale assembly arms 4:02 Biologically-inspired nano design 4:45 Part 2: Nanomedicine 5:01 Compatibility with human body 5:29 Leveraging DNA origami to build nanobots 5:53 Research: self-assembling nanobarrels 6:22 Research: delivering targeted RNA to attack cancer cells 7:09 Research: nanobarrel to cancer cell summary 7:31 Research: opening the nanobarrels with RF 8:37 Nanobots don’t look like robots 8:53 Nanotechnology already used in medicine 9:39 Part 3: Future of medical nanotech 10:09 Ray Kurzweil on medical nanobots 10:24 Building brain computer interfaces with nanobots 10:54 BCI: Expanding thinking capacity 11:09 BCI: Virtual and augmented reality 11:33 Investment in medical nanotech 12:07 AI and nanomanufacturing 12:49 Conclusion 13:16 Creating general-purpose nanobots 13:33 Outro
