SHRINKING ROBOTS!

Outline Learn about robots and nanobots –What is a robot? –How small can robots be? –What is a nanobot? –Are nanobots real? Make a pretend robot

What is a robot?

Robots are machines that can sense, plan, and act

How small can robots be?

Are there robots the size of a child? 1m

Yes! There robots the size of a child! 1m

Mars rover

Humanoid robot

Factory robot

Are there robots the size of a hand? 10cm

Yes! There robots the size of a hand! 10cm

Vacuuming robot

Climbing robot

Swarming robot

Are there robots the size of a finger? 1cm

Yes! There robots the size of a finger! 1cm

Crawling robot

Medical robot

Flying robot

Are there robots the size of a freckle or hair?.1mm 1mm

Yes! There robots the size of a freckle or hair!.1mm 1mm

Soccer robots

Smallest robot!

What are nanobots? Are they real?

Nanobots would be very, very small robots! The size of cells or molecules Able to sense, plan, and act

Nano is very, very small A nanometer is a billionth of a meter Molecules are nanometers across

Are there robots the size of a cell or molecule? 1nm 1µm

NO! There are no robots the size of a cell or molecule! These are pictures of imaginary robots! 1nm 1µm

Nanocars (not robots)

Review What is a robot? How small can robots be? What is a nanobot? Are nanobots real?

Make a robot! My robot’s name is… Its job is… It’s as big as… It’s controlled by… It’s powered by…
