Nanofactory Animation

A nanofactory is a proposed system in which nanomachines (resembling molecular assemblers, or industrial robot arms) would combine molecules to build larger atomically precise parts. These, in turn, would be assembled by positioning mechanisms of assorted sizes to build macroscopic (visible) but still atomically-precise products. A functioning nanofactory could create virtually any product at the cost of only the input raw material and energy.

    After nanotechnology gets invented, it can reach the markets. At this moment, it is still a science fiction dream. K. Eric Drexler predicted molecular nanotechnology would be invented by the 2030’s.

    this will be in stores in time for christmas

    Sigh…

    My friend, take your luddite fears and run them out of town. How many people do you think work in the production of very-high-precision equipment?

    Also, costs and speed: nobody is going to use nanotech to make cans, rulers, and clothes; it’s cheaper and faster to make them like we do now. Also, what’s the point of making molecule-perfect things, which you will use once and then recycle? Nanotech is best used when requiring molecule-level precision.

    Best explanation eva! Hopefully this will be out in 2030-50.

    The government would, i’m sure they dont wont this falling into the “wrong” hands…

  6. everett151234 30 August 2009 at 18:50 #

    But wouldn’t this leave millions of people without jobs?
    and besides if this came out the first thing we would see is cans of coke…

    Who would own this technology, the government or individuals? I imagine that a set of regulations for something like this would be very difficult to formulate.

    Finally….a laptop that can run Vista.

    BREAKING NEWS FROM THE YEAR 2120 AD:
    The NanoFactory Supreme Council has declared The Human Race to be “illegal aliens” and will summarily be “reclassifying” all humans into the subterranean slave mines.

    How long until this reaches Markets?

  11. Jenfucius 30 August 2009 at 18:50 #

    I think theres plenty of carbon around (raw maerterial)!

    Imagine what kind of world we will have! No more hunger. The iradication of disease. Maybe immortality! Wow!

    Absolutley! I think what this video shows here is stage fivi in nanotechnology, and we are currently on stage 3 or something, but when you have one of theese baybies, you can make anything, as long as you have rawmaterials :)

    Maybe in the future we can also have a food replicator like that on Star Trek?

    We already have the gasification process(plasma converter),is not exactly the same thing as you describe but it works. You can get syngas, hidrogen, methanol, ethanol, CO, CO2, sulfur, diesel, jet fuel, etc, from it(i mean, from Garbage or any type of biomass)… Still, i know what you mean, its a great idea…

    The best explanation I’ve ever seen yet.

    These systems will be self repairing

  17. sleepingeye 30 August 2009 at 18:50 #

    absolutely fascinating and yet possible

  18. danteisbrutal 30 August 2009 at 18:50 #

    wtf is that?oO

  19. Whovian2711 30 August 2009 at 18:50 #

    Wow, this looks really scary.

  20. Transhumanism101 30 August 2009 at 18:50 #

    its a shame, i will not be there when this gets in the market

    You might be around because life extension is around the corner. Check out my channel for more INFO.

    I don’t think this would happen… They woud work with stabl eatoms or materials like hydrogen atoms carbon atoms, stuff like that. Not Uranium.

    Through nanoproduction we can achieve absolute perfection.

    Insane!

    They were a mixture of acetylene and benzene
