Medical robot breakthrough: Software controlled movement in living animal
The power of pre-molecular nanotechnology systems is shown in this work. APolytechnique team has succeeded in injecting, propelling andcontrolling by means of software programs an initial prototype of anuntethered device (a ferromagnetic 1.5- millimetre-diameter sphere)within the carotid artery of a living animal placed inside a clinicalmagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. They have succeeded forthe first …
