Magnetotactic bacteria and nanotechnology.

 



Magnetotactic bacteria and nanotechnology. 


What would we do with bacteria, what we could control like a robot?

When we are seeing the article below this text (1), we are seeing how simple the magnetotactic bacteria guidance system is. The term magnetotactic bacteria means bacteria, which is always in direction with Earth's magnetic field. This thing means that this kind of bacteria is a really interesting target to use as a miniaturized robot. 

Moving the groups of those bacteria to a certain direction is very easy and that thing would be happening by using the magnetic fields. That would be a suitable method to control large groups of bacteria.

But what if we would want to move single bacteria in a certain direction. One version is to pull the magnetic crystals away from bacteria and replace those things by using the fullerene stick, which is installed with small size servo-motor, and then that thing would push the protein structure to a certain position. The guidance system of those bacteria is basing the magnetic crystals, which affects the protein Mam Y. Or the magnetic crystals can be pulled together by using the magnet, and then the structure would be turned to wanted direction. 

Connecting bacteria and the camera-equipped miniature submarine would be a fantastic idea. 

That would be quite easy to create, and if we would want to make the bacteria move in a certain direction, we must just the small motor and the stick, which can move those magnetic crystals in a certain direction. If that stick would be connected to the control circuit. Another way to make this thing is just creating the nano-submarine, which would have enough powerful magnet to adjust those magnetic crystals to a certain position. 

The small size nano-submarine that is equipped with magnet can swim ahead this kind of bacteria, and that bacteria will swim after the submarine, and this kind of system would allow the bacteria to make things, what we ever can expect. The nano-submarine would communicate with the control unit by using the wireless communication system. 

There could be many solutions to this kind of systems in the future

And the engines of robots would get their electricity by the same system. The operators can see the things by the camera, which is connected to the submarine. This kind of thing would make possible to create small-sized biological robot, which can be used in many missions. In theory, this kind of manipulated bacteria can be used to clean tubes and even blood veins and remove things like plaque from the head of the Alzheimer patients.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like.

.     The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like. Above is the image of the nano-submarine. There is introduced an idea, that this kind of system would equip with living neurons, which makes it like some kind of artificial bug or mosquito. The idea is that the robot can take the nutrient by using the robot tube, which acts like a proboscis. The neurons can get nutrients and the rest of the machine can use small fuel cells or the energy to that system can deliver by using the radio waves. Futurologists are thinking about the ideas, what the hybridization of the neurons and machine would look like? Could the hyper-technical civilization look like the group of midget submarines? Those submarines might take nutrients for the neurons, what is living in them. The purpose of the midget submarines, which might be size less than a couple of millimeters would maximize the survivability of the neurons. One of the most intere...
