Nanobots can play a role in the military and medical fields.
1, the military field
Military nanobots, commonly known as "ant soldiers", is a smaller than the ants by the solar energy waves driven by robots with amazing destructive power. They can infiltrate the enemy's key military departments (headquarters, arsenals, the Führer's office and secret bases, etc.) to carry out reconnaissance activities through a variety of ways, and even directly attack the target.
For example, the use of special explosives to detonate the target, sabotage the enemy's electronic equipment and computer networks (such as short-circuit destruction), the application of a variety of chemical agents (such as to make the metal become brittle, oil coagulation, or to make the enemy's personnel nerve paralysis and loss of combat effectiveness), and even planted miniature landmines and act as a blaster.
This nano-bot can also act as a sleeper agent, usually peacefully and quietly, once the war breaks out, through the micro-remote control device can be induced to rise up and attack them, quickly destroy the enemy combat system.
2, the medical field
(1) high sensitivity, accurate biological nanostructures and characteristics of the detection technology, such as early diagnosis of disease nanosensor systems.
(2) Nanosizing of therapeutic drugs and the development of new pharmacology.
(3) Fine therapeutic surgeries combined with minimally invasive medicine, such as nanorobotic surgery in blood vessels.

History:
1. Inspiration for nanotechnology. came from a 1959 lecture given by the late physicist Richard Feynman titled "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom".
2. In 1981, scientists invented the scanning tunneling microscope, an important tool for the study of nanometer, which reveals a visible world of atoms and molecules for us, and positively contributes to the development of nanotechnology.
3, 1991, carbon nanotubes were discovered by mankind, its mass is one-sixth of the same volume of steel, but the strength is 10 times that of steel, and has become a hot spot for nanotechnology research. Nobel Prize-winning chemist Prof. Smalley believes that carbon nanotubes will be the material of choice for the best fibers in the future, and will also be widely used in ultra-micro wires, ultra-micro switches, and nanoscale electronic circuits.
4. In 2001, some countries have formulated relevant strategies or plans, and invested huge sums of money to seize the strategic high ground of nanotechnology. Japan set up a nanomaterials research center, nanotechnology is included in the new five-year science and technology basic plan of research and development priorities.
5, in May 2010, the United States Columbia University scientists successfully developed a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules composed of nano-spider robots, such robots can follow the trajectory of the DNA to walk freely, mobile, steering, and stop, and they are able to walk freely on the surface of two-dimensional objects. The nanospider robots are only 4 nanometers long, which is smaller than one hundred thousandth the diameter of a human hair.
