2. Containing nanotubes to create a super plant chloroplasts
Carbon nanotubes are large molecules, with unusual thermal and electrical performance. The research team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the California Institute of Technology, and published a method of nanotubes can be embedded into the chloroplasts of plants. This new combination will enhance photosynthesis and plant growth many times over.
This application needs to be available for several years. But in addition to the growth and yield increase plant growth, containing chloroplasts and some unimaginable applications of nanotubes can be developed for power plants, construction materials can be self-healing, and for the use of autologous material for energy the construction of the building.
3. Walk in the blood scallop robot
Max Planck Institute in Germany have researchers who developed the ability to walk on the blood micro-robots that can be used to repair damaged tissue and transport drugs.
The viscosity of the challenges they face from the blood: In addition to hinder action, but also with the speed of change. To solve this problem, they are designed to shape the robot scallop type and using an external magnetic field for energy. These robots become a new starting point for future multi-form medical equipment development.
4. Microchip help paralyzed arm resumes activity
Grafts implanted in the body for many disease treatments produced a change. In April, researchers from Ohio State University reported that a paralyzed man by implanting microchips successfully regain the ability to use the arm.
