Nanobot
machine of size smaller than 100 nm
Nanorobots, or nanobots for short, are a hypothetical type of robots. Their parts are about as big as a nanometer (0,0000000001 or 10−9 meters).[1]
Use
changeNanobots could be useful in branches like medicine. They could do a diagnosis and targeted drug-delivery for cancer.[2]
