This is great for blowing things
nanotechnology investment January 17th, 2009As our understanding of atoms becomes more finegrained, somebody will invent transducer that will be direct link between the atomic world and our world, so atomic energy can be brought up here to our level in useful form, not as heat but as coherent energy. This is the real promise of quantum engineering. In the 20th century, atomic energy was released as heat and random radiation. Anyone who wants to be serious player in the nanotech business should be thinking about software as much as hardware.
prefer to call it quantum engineering or femtochemistry rather than nanotechnology.It is true that robots of all sizes will be pervasive in the coming years. This is great for blowing things up and contaminating the environment, but its not ideal as source of energy. As our understanding of atoms becomes more finegrained, somebody will invent transducer that will be direct link between the atomic world and our world, so atomic energy can be brought up here to our level in useful form, not as heat but as coherent energy.
The same software that we already use in other contexts peer to peer networking, web services can be carried over to swarms of robots. As our understanding of atoms becomes more finegrained, somebody will invent transducer that will be direct link between the atomic world and our world, so atomic energy can be brought up here to our level in useful form, not as heat but as coherent energy. There are various ways to describe what we are doing.
