Molecular Robotics

2003
Molecular Robotics is one of the most exciting new fields in science. First hypothesized in the '50s it has grown, or should I say "shrunk", to a whole new level of technology. The ability to manipulate a single atom has been a dream of scientist since the discovery of the atom, but hey hasn't everyone had that dream.

Watch Out! ROBOT Spoken Here

2000
Our site reviews a number of commercial robot kits which were assembled by the authors. The good and bad points of each kit are discussed, along with still photos of the robots. Visitors can watch actual footage of a micro-robot suturing a live person during closed-heart surgery. Many links to other robot sites are provided, including the national robot design contest (FIRST). We also provide an interactive "Robot Visitor Center" for sharing information on robots, providing additional robot kit reviews, and comments on the site; and an interactive "RoboCop Detective" Mindbender.
