While its feet may wander aimlessly, its hand won’t pick up just anything. Neither will it release its finds willy nilly. “It” is a molecular robot, a single-stranded DNA with one leg and two foot ...

The field of nanotechnology is still in its nascent stages, but recent innovations are increasingly making this science fiction world of tiny robots into a reality. New breakthrough research from a ...

Scientists create microscopic DNA 'flower robots' that can deliver drugs, heal wounds and even clean the planet. Scientists have created microscopic “soft robots” shaped like flowers that can change ...

DNA-folding nanorobots can manufacture limitless copies of themselves By Loz Blain December 08, 2023 Tiny nano-robots have been developed that can grab tiny snippets of DNA and assemble them into new ...

To deliver a package, we usually enlist the help of a postal or parcel service, which accepts the cargo, sorts it, and sees that it gets safely to its designated destination. This task becomes quite ...

In the future, swarms of robots could be called in to build impressive structures or clean up dangerous messes too small to be seen with the naked eye. Just ask researchers at Caltech, who have ...

Robots are already good at sorting things, so wouldn't it be nice if they could sort things out on a much smaller scale? They might soon. Caltech researchers have developed a 'robot' made from a ...

Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have developed an autonomous molecular machine comprising a single strand of DNA that can move around, collect specific molecules and sort them ...

Scientists have programmed a 'robot' made of DNA to pick up and sort molecules into predetermined locations. Imagine a robot that could help you tidy your home: roving about, sorting stray socks into ...
