Professor Itai Cohen will present
Electronically integrated cell sized robots
Tuesday, October 29th 12:10 pm in CNS 333
Pizza and Beverages Provided
What would we be able to do if we could build electronically integrated machines the size of a single cell? At a scale of 50 microns, or about half a hair’s diameter, semiconductor devices are small enough that we could put the computational power of the spaceship Voyager onto a machine that could be injected into the body. Such robots could have on board detectors, power sources, and processors that enable them to sense, interact, and control their local environment. In this talk I will describe several cutting edge technologies we are developing to achieve this vision.
