In Foresight: A good place to follow progress in the nanotech space. A visual of a nanotech motor that might be used in some spectacular ways: " ... Near-term application of artificial molecular motors based on this work are not difficult to imagine, such as in drug delivery or gene delivery for nanomedicine. Could motors like these be useful for more complicated molecular machine systems, such as running pulleys using DNA cables to transport components in primitive molecular manufacturing systems? .. "
I have suggested in the past that once the physical nano systems are possible, we will need analytics to use as sensors and control systems to direct them. I am reminded of the 'brute force' control systems of the Roomba. We will likely need to do better than that.
