Abstract

The construction of a practical nanorobot is a definite futuristic reality. However development of a Nanorobot is associated with a multitude of challenges and limitations related mainly to its control and behavior aspects in different dynamic work environments. In this chapter a novel Nanorobot movement control algorithms in dynamic environment has being introduced. To avoid obstacles during movement trajectory, swarm intelligence based approach and for sensing, path planning, obstacle avoidance and target detection of nano-robot Quorum and RFID based approach has been utilized. Major proportion of work has been done on Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio 2008 (MSRD, 2008) along with two kinds of programming environment VPL and SPL. The chapter also includes a description of how nanorobotics technology has been applied in medical field. In this context, a non invasive method to treat a brain blood clot using nanorobots has being explained. Various other aspects of application of nanorobots has also been briefly mentioned.
