Steely Dan Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 Meet the nano-spiders: The DNA robots that could one day be walking through your body By Daily Mail Reporters Last updated at 2:48 AM on 15th May 2010 Scientists have created microscopic robots out of DNA molecules that can walk, turn and even create tiny products of their own on a nano-scale assembly line. The ground-breaking devices outlined in the journal Nature, could one day lead to armies of surgeon robots that could clean human arteries or build computer components. In one of the projects a team from New York's Columbia University created a spider bot just four nanometres across. This is about 100,000 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair.
