An international team of scientists published a paper in a journal devoted to the development of nanorobots capable of delivering drugs to individual body tissues.

Organic bots were printed on a 3D printer and incubated in a solution of iron oxide to enable magnetization. The scientists showed how to use magnets to control the robot, moving it through the veins and giving it a signal to release the medicine from the reservoir. Open / Comment

2021-11-28 19:06:02 The ZEVA Aero electric flying saucer

Researchers at Washington State University have developed the design of the eVTOL, a vehicle that closely resembles a flying saucer.

The ZEVA Aero, being a single-seat aircraft, can only take off and land from a vertical position due to its design, smoothly transitioning to horizontal flight as it moves.

Its specialty is speed. The ZEVA Aero is capable of covering distances of up to 80 km at 257 km/h. Open / Comment
