Can Nanobots be used for interconnecting Nano-computers with Human Mind?
Task
The student has to think critically about every aspect of this technology of future.
� Compare and contrast various concept methodologies regarding the development of such a project.
� Examine perspectives and alternate points of view on this project
� Justify the methodology that you feel suits best for this project development.
We can think of every question that strikes our mind.
Some of the questions i researched about are as following:
Critical Thinking
Q1. What will be a nanobot made up of?
A1. The technology from which a nanobot will be made is still under development. But there are several methods that are proposed to make a nanobot.
Some are listed below:
1. A nanobot can be made out of an artificial DNA combined with Carbon chain tentacles or carbon balls.
2. Nanobots can be made of some material(metals) combined with chemicals.
Q2. What will be the lifetime of a nanobot?
A2. Their lifetime depends on their power source which if renewable can go on for years. But their lifetime also depends upon their functionality in the body. Different nanobots with different functionality will have different lifetimes.
Instance: A nanobot targeting a diseased cell will have to excreted from the body after it performs its task whereas a nanobot connected to brain will not be required to come out until it becomes non-functional.
Q3. How will a nanobot be excreted from the body?
A3. 1.Nanobots can either dissolve in the body chemicals after they perform a specific function and then be excreted.
2.Nanobots may self-destruct and then can be excreted through natural process.
Q4. How will a nanobot be injected in a body?
A4. Nanobots can either be inserted through a syringe or can be directly swallowed.
Q5. What will power a nanobot?
A5. There are many solutions to this problem.
1. Solar cells can be used as renewable source of energy.
2. Using a film of radioactive particle which would release energy as it decays and this energy will be used by the nanobot.
