Nanorobotics & Nanotechnology in human body???

Today we're talking about nano robotics and the endless possibilities for their application.

The science of nano robotics is engineering and technology, chemistry and biology conducted at the nanoscale.

Because this technology operates on such a small scale, it has the potential to manipulate all sorts of things, including the building blocks of life.

Engineers at Ohio State designed and constructed complex nanoscale mechanical parts using a process known as DNA origami, and this method proved that common design principles used to build basic machine parts can also be applied to DNA.

Nanoparticles could gather in certain tissues and, when scanned with an MRI, help highlight problems such as diabetes.

Nanobots could also help keep veins and arteries clear, removing blockages and plaque from arterial walls to help fight heart disease.

Today we talked about the emerging field of nanotechnology.

What do you guys feel about nanotech? Would you be comfortable having a tiny robot army coursing through your veins? What else could nanotechnology be used for? Let us know in the comments.
