I Have a Little Black Hole

After discussing with Tian Mingli about other matters of the company, Lei Tiantang went back to his office. During this time, apart from learning computer knowledge, he did not let go of his knowledge about robots, although Kuafu had already provided all the things he needed. The robots are all done, but after all, this is the company's first-generation robot, and the next-generation robot development still needs to be prepared in advance. The first-generation robot cannot be used for 5 years and 10 years.

And when he was studying new materials, he also had a new idea. The concept of nanorobots has been hyped internationally before, but it is only a certain concept in the laboratory. Some laboratories can indeed produce trace amounts of nanometers. Robots, but basically have no practical value. Because of imperfect functions and too high production conditions, it is still very early for nano-robots to be truly applied.

Nanorobot is an emerging technology in robotics engineering. The development of nanorobots belongs to the category of molecular nanotechnology (; nanotechnology, MNT). Functional molecular devices that operate in nanospace.

The idea of ​​nanobiology is to apply biological principles at the nanoscale, discover new phenomena, and develop programmable molecular robots, also known as nanorobots. The content involved can be summarized into the following four aspects:

1. Understand the fine structure of biological macromolecules and their connection with function at the nanoscale.

2. Obtain life information at the nanoscale, for example, use scanning tunneling microscopy to obtain structural information of cell membranes and cell surfaces.

3. Development of nano-robots. Nanorobots are the most attractive content in nanobiology. The first generation of nanorobots is an organic combination of biological systems and mechanical systems. Such nanorobots can be injected into human blood vessels for health check and disease treatment. It can also be used to repair human organs, perform cosmetic surgery, remove harmful DNA from genes, or install normal DNA in genes to make the body function normally

. The second-generation nanorobots are directly assembled from atoms or molecules into nanoscale molecular devices with specific functions. The third-generation nanorobots will include nanocomputers, a device that can carry out human-machine dialogue.

4. Nanoscale adjustment to kill mutated cancerous cells, guided by external lasers, accurate calculation to find cancerous cells with excessive radiation, using advanced biological cell lysis technology to dissolve possible diseased cells into chemical molecular elements, and through a specific sensor system After accurate verification, the cell components are successfully entered into healthy cells, and the conversion of necrotic cells to successful healthy cells is completed.

Of course, the current mainstream scientists are basically focusing on the medical use of nanorobots, but Lei Tiantang thinks that nanorobots can be used in any way in the future, and can almost open the door to any technology like a master key!

Nanorobots can be used to form a variety of structures,

Deformable vehicles, armor, weapons, daily necessities, etc., these various items made entirely or partially with nanorobots can repair themselves. Even if they are damaged, nanorobots can absorb materials and then self-replicate to make them look new.

In particular, the maintenance ability of nanorobots is the most important to Lei Tiantang. It can repair the damage of various materials by absorbing materials at the microscopic level. Such characteristics are even more important in space navigation. You must know that a spacecraft is in the universe. The voyage in China cannot be smooth sailing, and there will always be situations such as asteroid impact, radiation corrosion, and wear and tear of hull materials.

It is impossible to carry various parts production equipment on the spacecraft to produce parts for maintenance of the spacecraft, and it is impossible to carry a lot of repeated parts to ensure the maintenance of the spacecraft, so the maintenance work on the spacecraft in the future may only use 3D printed parts. To replace, or to use nano-robots to repair the damage of the parts to achieve the purpose of extending the use time of the parts.

Therefore, the research on nanorobots is imperative. Although he can use the absolute field to manufacture nanorobots as long as they are designed, the things he makes can only be personal behaviors. There is no problem, but you can't make it mass-produced.

Therefore, Lei Tiantang can only carry out the research of the first generation of nano-robots. After all, the current scientific production equipment is still far from being used to produce nano-robots. The problem of equipment is also one of the reasons that troubles him. Are you a hooligan like a gangster scientist?

Now there are some scientists who don't consider whether it can be produced when designing certain models. If it can't be produced, it's not my problem. If it can't be produced now, it can be produced. If I design it, it will be worthy of your investment. There are still many people with such rogue thoughts.

Another area that troubles him is the safety issue. You must know that nanorobots must use a large number of nanomachines to perform any task, including self-replication.

There may be millions of nanorobots in the bloodstream; trillions of nanorobots may be needed at every toxic waste site, and tens of billions of nanorobots may be mobilized to make a single car at the same time. However, no production line can produce such huge quantities of nanorobots.

So perfect self-replication of nanorobots is a function they must have, but what happens if nanorobots forget to stop replicating?

Without some built-in stop signal, nanobots forget to stop replicating, and the possible consequences of such a disaster would be incalculable. Nanobots replicate rapidly in the human body and can infest normal tissue faster than cancer can spread; a mad food-making robot can turn Earth's entire biosphere into a giant lump of cheese.

Such a dangerous situation will definitely occur. After all, everyone understands the ability of human beings to kill themselves. He needs to pay special attention to how to control these dangerous situations. Otherwise, the robot he designed and manufactured will be used by others. Sabotage or launching terrorist attacks, etc., is completely opposite to his original intention, so there must be a way to control them!
