Nanorobotics Control Systems Design – A New Paradigm for Healthcare System

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 337))

Abstract

Nanorobotics is currently emerging as an attractive area of scientific research bridging biological and computational science along with mechanical science at the molecular level. We present a new approach to control the machines at the nano-meter or molecular scale (10− 9 meter) in the perspective of the theory of cybernetics, the science of control, communication and computation with integration to complex man–machines systems. The problem under study concentrates its main focus on nano-robot control systems design including systems casualty, state notation and automata. We also describe the theory of nano-scale thermodynamically driven self assembly for collaborative information processing in a Bio-nanorobotics systems. A fuzzy shaped based approach is described in context of recognizing a single malignant cell along with its stage, as a target for medical treatment. The synthesis and imaging of magnetic nanoparticles, that can be functionally bind with the medicine and reached the effected regions for targeted drug delivery, such as in cancer treatment is also presented.
