The future of “nanobots“ in 2023 and beyond

Imagine being trapped under rubble after a natural disaster until a cockroach wriggles in from under a rock. Minutes later, the ruble is removed, and you’re pulled to safety. Wait a minute - did a cockroach just save your life? Not exactly... While researchers in Japan have actually created cyborg cockroaches to help find survivors trapped under rubble after earthquakes, that’s not what we’re talking about. We’re talking about microbots - tiny robots designed to replicate the movements of small creatures like bugs to reach spaces that humans can’t for everything from search and rescue to inspection to even space exploration. Microbots are most commonly used in the biotech industry to develop diagnostic and targeted therapeutics to monitor and treat disease. But they’ve been used for environmental monitoring, soil remediation, agricultural research, jet engine inspection, and of course, search and rescue. Not only that - they’re about to be used for a ton more stuff as this technology has advanced rapidly over the past few years. In this video, we cover how small robots work and what they can do, and then cover the most incredible opportunities that are about to be unlocked with this technology.
