Whether dealing with remote-controlled corpses, lethally malfunctioning micromachines, or cop-killer cyborgs, Section 9 is determined to serve and protect . . . and reboot some cybercrook ass! ❋ Unknown (2009)
Adamatzky goes on to say that the long term goal is to use Plasmobots to “assemble the components of micromachines.” ❋ Unknown (2009)
Since metals are less brittle than silicon, they promise more durable and perhaps more practical micromachines. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Creating your T-bone: While micromachines sound fantastic enough, to some scientists they are a mere way station on the road toward the ultimate discovery: a way to manipulate matter at the atomic level. ❋ Unknown (2008)
If that happens, America will cede to Japan a technology more momentous than stereos: micromachines "cut to the core of our economic survival," warns NSF's Hazelrigg. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Slow and weak, the rotors circle at about twice the speed of the second hand on a watch and generate only a ten-thousandth as much torque as typical electrically powered micromachines do. ❋ Unknown (2006)
Whatever they do, many micromachines will need a motor. ❋ Unknown (2008)
These Lilliputian sensors, motors, gears and other micromachines -- from coffee cup to speck-of-sand in size -- can recognize light and sound and motion. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Late last year micromachines took their first steps out of the silicon age. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Last August Japan's Ministry of International Trade and Industry chose micromachines for its next big "national effort" and announced that it will pour 25 billion yen ($200 million) into a 10-year drive to research and develop industrial and medical microrobots. ❋ Unknown (2008)
What should be done next is repurpose these micromachines for our own gut microbes and encase them in a capsule. ❋ Unknown (2006)
SMALLER THAN THE PERIOD AT THE END OF THIS LINE. So far, micromachines do little more than spin around and mystify passing mites. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The greatest advances may come in medicine, where micromachines could embark on a real-life fantastic voyage through the bloodstream. ❋ Unknown (2008)
NSF and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency together spend all of $2.5 million a year on micromachines. ❋ Unknown (2008)
The answers will depend on how micromachines wear, on how they react to forces that don't matter at larger scales. ❋ Unknown (2008)
* Fabricating micromachines right on top of ICs leads to smaller and less-expensive devices. ❋ Unknown (2003)
The key component is a chip that contains a host of micromachines tilting an array of tiny aluminium mirrors bugshaw will be able to explain it far better than me! ❋ Bugshaw (2003)
Arrays of lightfoils could someday power micromachines. ❋ Jonathan Keats (2011)
