MIT Study Shows Off Chemical-Detecting Machines the Size of a Human Egg Cell
“Robots are excellent tools for gathering information from areas humans can’t reach. And now new speck-sized machines from MIT could extend that capability to carrying out diagnostics inside the human body, wafting through the air to spot pollutants, or even detecting leaks in oil and gas pipelines.
These devices don’t really fit the conventional vision of what a robot looks like. The machines described in a recent paper in Nature Nanotechnologyare actually just a collection of sensors, computation, and memory attached to tiny particles called colloids…”
