Nanobots
are extremely small robots or machines, measured in nanometers, which are equivalent to one billionth of a meter. They can be used to perform nanoscale
mechanical tasks
such as moving molecules with
precision
and mobility.
Surgeons
hope to be able to maneuver nanorobots to navigate through highly dense spaces within organs and blood vessels, allowing the nanorobots to break up
blood clots
and aid in the delivery of
targeted medications
into cells.
