Nanorobots: Current state and future perspectives

Nanorobotics is a very recent field that has gained a tremendous momentum of the world scientific community at large. Scientists worldwide are - directing their efforts to develop systematic procedures to synthesize a fully functional autonomous nanorobot in reality. An attempt has been made in this work to show the progress in the research of nanorobots in the last decade. This review paper begins with a brief introduction to the field of nanorobotics and nanorobots. The synthesis of nanorobots is also discussed where the essential structural nanocomponents have been briefly explained and some assembly procedures have also been discussed. The potential applications of nanorobots have also been stated. In conclusion, current challenged and future possibilities are highlighted.
