Chapter 408 Nanorobot Testing
Li Yang's thoughts turned to the industrial field. He thought of many working scenarios in extreme environments, such as nuclear power plant maintenance, deep sea exploration, and even equipment repair in space. Traditional mechanical equipment often cannot function in these environments, but nanorobots can easily cope with them.
He marked the design idea of "group collaboration mode" on the drawing. This mode can enable thousands of nanorobots to cooperate to perform complex tasks. They can complete the repair of mechanical equipment through division of labor and cooperation like ants, and even complete extremely precise detection tasks in space.
Li Yang decided to design a "self-replication system" for industrial nanorobots. This system allows nanorobots to use surrounding materials to replicate themselves when needed, greatly improving their work efficiency and sustainability. This design will enable nanorobots to have higher survivability in extreme environments.
"Industrial production in the future will no longer rely on huge mechanical equipment, and nanorobots will become the core force of industrial automation." Li Yang's fingers moved across the drawing, his eyes full of expectations for the future.
6. Application of Nanorobots in Military Field
Finally, Li Yang's thoughts returned to the military field. He had long realized that the application of nanorobots in the military field would completely change the rules of war.
He sketched out the outline of a "penetrating nanorobot" on the design drawing. This nanorobot can infiltrate the enemy's system with extremely high concealment, interfere with the enemy's communication network, and even lock onto the enemy's missile system, causing malfunctions in advance and rendering the enemy's weapon system ineffective.
Li Yang also designed a "self-destruct mechanism" for these nanorobots. Once the mission is completed or the nanorobots are discovered by the enemy, they can be automatically destroyed through the internal energy overload mechanism to ensure that no information is leaked.
"The future of warfare will no longer rely on large-scale troop concentrations, but on these miniature 'silent killers'." Li Yang's eyes revealed a hint of coldness. He knew that nanorobots would become invisible trump cards on future battlefields.
Li Yang stood in the center of the laboratory. It was quiet all around him. He was the only one there.
The light from the lab shone on his face, revealing his slightly tired look. He had hardly slept since he decided to develop nanorobots.
As a time traveler, Li Yang knows very well that this future-opening technology will completely change the destiny of mankind and even the destiny of the country.
He gently stroked the draft paper on the table, which was densely covered with ideas and formulas about the design of nanorobots.
His fingers stroked the edge of the paper, and his slightly furrowed brows revealed his concentration and uneasiness.
Although in the memory of the future, nanorobots have already shined in the medical, industrial and even military fields, in this era, everything is still just a concept.
"Where should I start?" Li Yang muttered to himself, staring at the draft paper. He knew that the development of nanorobots was not just a simple technical issue. It involved multiple fields such as material science, energy supply, and control systems, and each link could become a bottleneck.
And he can only face all this alone.
Li Yang took a deep breath, walked to the lab table and began to prepare materials.
The first thing that must be solved is the material problem of nanorobots.
Li Yang decided to use carbon nanotube and graphene composite materials as the basic structure.
Carbon nanotubes have extremely high strength and conductivity, while graphene can effectively resist high temperatures and radiation. The combination of the two will give nanorobots extremely strong durability and adaptability.
He opened the lab cabinet, took out several graphene samples that had been prepared, and carefully placed them under a microscope for observation. The surface of graphene is smooth and dense, and its tiny structures show a beauty as slender but tough as spider silk under the microscope.
"Perfect material." Li Yang muttered to himself, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Next, he placed the graphene sample into a homemade high-temperature furnace to prepare for the initial synthesis of the material.
The fire gradually heated up under his operation. Li Yang stared at the thermometer in the furnace, sweat dripping down his forehead. His fingers tapped lightly on the operating table, and every breath became extra cautious.
The high-temperature furnace made a slight humming sound, and the graphene sample gradually merged with the carbon nanotubes in the high temperature. Li Yang's eyes flashed with excitement. He knew that this was only the first step, and the real challenge was still to come.
When the sample cooled, Li Yang carefully took it out of the furnace and placed it on the laboratory table. He put on a magnifying glass and carefully observed the surface structure of the composite material.
After high temperature treatment, the carbon nanotubes and graphene are so tightly fused that the boundary is almost invisible. Li Yang nodded with satisfaction, and the next step is to test the strength and heat resistance of the material.
He placed the sample in a pressure testing machine and began to gradually increase the pressure.
The machine made a low roar, and Li Yang's eyes never left the data on the dashboard. As the pressure gradually increased, the composite material still maintained good stability without any cracks or deformation.
"Very good." He said softly, and quickly wrote down the test results in the notebook. The next step was the heat resistance test. He put the sample into the high-temperature furnace and gradually increased the temperature again.
The temperature in the furnace rose rapidly, reaching thousands of degrees Celsius, but the composite material designed by Li Yang still maintained its good shape.
"This step was successful." Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. He knew that the initial solution to the material problem laid the foundation for the further development of nanorobots.
Next, Li Yang began to think about the power system of the nanorobot.
This is another tricky problem. Traditional batteries are obviously unable to meet the needs of such a tiny device, especially in this relatively backward era of technology, and the energy problem is even more difficult to solve.
But Li Yang was not discouraged. He decided to use a micro energy harvesting system to power the nanorobots by absorbing magnetic field energy or thermal energy from the surrounding environment.
"If the micro energy harvester can work, it will be a breakthrough design." Li Yang said to himself, and then began to prepare the design of the energy harvester.
He took out some magnetic materials and micro coils from the experimental cabinet and began to assemble a preliminary model of the energy harvester. The core of this system is how to effectively convert external energy into electrical energy and transmit it to the nanorobot with extremely high efficiency.
Li Yang's fingers moved quickly between various parts, and sweat kept dripping onto the laboratory table, but his expression was always focused, without a single slackness.
When the energy collector model was assembled, Li Yang couldn't wait to start the first test.
He connected the energy harvester to a generator to simulate a weak magnetic field. The needle on the dashboard trembled slightly and then slowly rose, indicating the generation of current.
"It works!" Li Yang's eyes sparkled with excitement. He connected the energy harvester to a microcircuit board and observed the transmission of current. Although the current generated was still very weak, it was enough to prove that his design was feasible.
Next, Li Yang continued to optimize the energy collector. He adjusted the number of coils and the choice of materials, and ultimately increased the current output several times.
Although the process was extremely difficult, Li Yang always maintained a resolute look on his face. He knew that once the power problem of nanorobots was solved, the practicality of this technology would be greatly improved.
After achieving initial results in the power system, Li Yang turned his attention to the control system of nanorobots.
Traditional remote controls are obviously unable to control such tiny devices. Li Yang decided to use a combination of wireless signals and AI to remotely control the actions of the nanorobot through the AI system.
Li Yang walked to the table and turned on an old computer. The code on the screen already showed the AI algorithm he had designed previously.
Li Yang's fingers began to tap rapidly on the keyboard. He needed to design an independent control program for the nanorobot, and this program had to be simple enough to run effectively given the nanorobot's tiny size.
Time passed by little by little, and the air in the laboratory seemed to freeze. Li Yang's fingers flew on the keyboard, and the code on the screen was constantly refreshed, and his thoughts became clearer and clearer.
This control system will transmit instructions via radio waves, and the AI system will act as a commander, responsible for analyzing data from the surrounding environment and issuing specific action instructions to the nanorobots.
"This will be a brand new breakthrough," Li Yang muttered to himself, with a hint of excitement in his eyes. He knew that the success of this system would enable nanorobots to have extremely high autonomy and flexibility, and be able to perform various tasks in complex environments.
When the code was finished, Li Yang uploaded the program to a small test device and prepared for the first test. He placed several miniature nanorobot models in a transparent glass container and turned on the radio signal transmission switch.
"Start!" Li Yang pressed the button.
After a few seconds, the nanorobots in the container began to move slowly. After receiving the signal, they began to move along the preset path.
A relieved smile appeared on Li Yang's face, but he knew that this was just a very basic test and more debugging and optimization would be needed.
He sat back at the lab table and began to analyze every detail of the AI program. The nanorobot's reaction speed, path planning, and task execution accuracy must all be further improved.
Beads of sweat gradually appeared on Li Yang's forehead, but he had no intention of stopping.
"Not enough," he whispered, his brows furrowed.
He once again called up the core code of the AI program and decided to add an adaptive learning function to the nanorobot.
Through this function, nanorobots will be able to continuously optimize their action strategies based on feedback information from task execution.
The process of writing code is long and boring, but Li Yang's thoughts are extremely clear.
His fingers moved rapidly across the keyboard, as if he had rehearsed every code character countless times in his mind.
As the code continued to improve, Li Yang's eyes flickered with confidence.
When the last line of code was finalized, Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief. He stood up, stretched his stiff shoulders, and then put the nanorobots into the test container again. This time, Li Yang was full of expectations for their performance.
"Start!" Li Yang pressed the start button again.
