The future of medicine is going to be hand-delivered — but not by mail carriers. Instead, life-saving drugs will be parceled, smuggled, and transported in the body via tiny, self-propelled microbots.

In a new study published in Advanced Functional Materials ("Light Controlled Biohybrid Microbots"), scientists from Sapienza Universitá di Roma demonstrate biohybrid microbots that harness living ...

Biological microbots made from bubbles have been tracked moving inside the brain of a living mouse as they were steered by ultrasound. “While the mouse is under the microscope, we can see the small ...

(WNDU) - Robots have changed the medical field, and now, those robots are becoming smaller than ever before. They’re called microbots, also known as nanobots. They’re microscopic in scale, and ...

'Hexbug Nano v2' microbots use vibrations to propel themselves forward. By connecting several of these toys with an elastic silicon rubber chain, the resulting structure is 'elastoactive'. This means ...

DENVER, Colo. (Ivanhoe Newswire)- Robots have changed the medical field, and now, those robots are becoming smaller than ever before. They’re called microbots, also known as nanorobots. They’re ...

Robots have changed the medical field and are now becoming smaller than ever before. They’re called microbots, also known as nanorobots. Microscopic in scale, experts say thousands of them could be ...

DENVER, Colo. (Ivanhoe Newswire) – Robots have changed the medical field, and now, those robots are becoming smaller than ever before. They’re called microbots, also known as nanorobots. They’re ...

Remote control Schematic showing (top panel) how microfibrebots can anchor to a blood vessel, navigate via helical propulsion, elongate to pass through narrow regions and aggregate to block blood flow ...

(Nanowerk News) Microrobotics has advanced rapidly in recent years, allowing scientists to build minuscular machines able to penetrate hard-to-reach environments from inside the human body to ...

Researchers have developed teeny, tiny microrobots that might one day jump and flap their wings on far-off worlds. As part of his thesis, under the supervision of professor Claire Tomlin, University ...
