Hi Everyone:
I've just removed a large number of nasty comments (and their users) that focused solely on religious differences. Please keep the discussion here on topic. Trolls will be blocked.
Thanks in advance for your help -
KQED
I was just accepted to UC Berkeley's undergraduate engineering program. If I decide to go there, I would very much like to do research in nanotechnology.
Thanks everyone!
great vidolist and info, thanks
Thank you very much for this film and post!!!
this tuff is amazing.... shows just how much more is possible that we have no idea about today...
So what happens if you make it to small for the electrons to do anything?
Hi Everyone:
Reminder from the editor: discussions about promoting / bashing Christianity or other religious views are considered off-topic, and will be removed.
Commenters who make personal attacks or offensive posts will be blocked.
Thanks in advance for keeping the conversation civilized and on-topic.
I've only participated in one nanochemistry-based research project so far in my career, but it was incredibly interresting stuff.
would anyone be able to tell me which television programme this is from, im using it as a source in and essay and need to know the origin of the vid.
thanks in advance
what type of plant is that at 6:30?
really informative video! im making a presentation about nanotechnology and i learnt here somethings that I didnt heared anywhere else like:
· + surface, - volumen = more reactions
· properties changes with the lenght of crystals cause of cinetic energy of electrons.
Good vid. Thanks for uploading.
Berkeley ! WOO WOO!
i like how the guy at 1:38 gets all giggly when he starts talking about something really nerdy hahahah
this makes those who promoted Cryonics look like geniuses after all.
Nice!! It's amazing to see how many people work their entire life in labs in order for us, gamers, to have better PCs and consoles with nano videocards, nano CPUs and nano harddrives to store stuff at nano prices!
So to which molecules do you talk of ?
And where do such molecules obtain there energy from in order to create light ?
What is the machine that you speak of ?
since when is 240p high def?
Awesome stuff! The thought of a level of bio/nanotechnology where we can identify and control the triggers for aging and nullify them...:p
the key to reversing cryonics suspensions in the future....:)
nanotechnology will be an evolutionary step in tech.
Damnit, I accidentally rated one :(
Thanks for this video! This is way above my level of intelligence, but nanotechnology fascinates me! Thanks again!
I think it will have a huge impact on the human race, technology beyond our dreams, but we'll definitly have to watch out for the risks and ethical problems! It will change things in EVERY field of science.
I'm more excited about using nano tech for the space elevator idea.
I'm not sure if I should actually respond because I don't think you'll understand regardless. They are talking about the energy of the electron, and how quantum confinement can elevate that energy. The energy of a nuclear bomb comes from the binding energy of the nucleus. That energy is not increased here.
Ok I need help from someone that understands nanotech.. just a basic question, what are nanomachines built from?
anyway, I'd like that somebody would tell me a video which talks about actual results in
nanotechnology like: Self-powered smart windows, trap captures cancer cells in blood...
I found articles but they're hard to understand due to I'm not english-speaking.
thanks!
Real technology is the medatitve study of how your consciousness effects reality, that's the future.
Science is the holy sprit when love is in the equation.
crazy how things have over the past few years with this amazing technology. my ipod nano is much smaller then my first ipod, and the battery lasts much longer.
And look what we have now
We have already isolated the triggers for aging. Although nobody has yet replaced them. It's not that we can't do it, it's just that some people find it unethical.
The polymer-based solar cells are great. They are not as efficient (currently) as monocrystalline silicon, but they are cost effective. I used a few to power a model of a hydrogen powered car.
ref: Crysis, from Crytek.
Awesome game, and I want that nanosuit.
I think you missed my point. Sony bought several laboratories to develop chips for the PS3, and they're obviously going to wait a few years until they release the PS4 since the PS3 has hardly even started selling yet.
I think Star Trek was based on the writers informed vision of the future, the space ships not really that interesting but the on-land parts look really cool.
Here is a way that a residential house could effectively store solar energy during the five hours of good sunshine, to last for the full twenty-four hours in a day. Use a hydraulic elevator system lifting a very heavy weight, where the energy is stored by the gravity of the weight. When the sun goes down,or when more power is needed during the five hours of good sunshine, the very heavy weight movement is reversed and the hydraulics is used to generate power. Maybe more days could be stored.
1984 was written in 1948, he reversed the years. he worked for a period of time in the government, which may have been the reason he was particularly "on the money."
its annoying to think that were so close to having technolagy that would enable the whole world to live with what they needed, yet due to the systems we live in it will be packaged and sold to us for a high price, leaving many without.
anyone who's interested in this area would also enjoy a film called ' zeitgeist addendum'
Well at least now even the smallest motor we've created is still pretty massive compared to, say, a human platelet. I'm sure by the time nanotechnology becomes a weapon I'll be long gone.
damn, this stuff is like something straight out of Star Trek or the Terminator. It's kinda scary even.
What's the problem with over populatation if you have this technology?
can you like take the little molecule that creates light because it hits the "walls of the box" and put ALOT of them in a room and turn on the machine that transforms the energy of light into electric energy and you got perpetual energy :P
I love this shit! I consider myself so fortunate to be alive during these times. I hope that we make a quantum leap in this field.
awesome! cant wait for it, who thought Nanobots are comming so far so quickly
description-
"and solar panels as thick as a sheet of paper."
it's "as thin as a sheet of paper", not thick, you are trying to describe how small it is compared to the original or prior version or form.
i was thinking of doing something nano for my thesis, but my lecturer advises against it because its still so very new, and information is difficult to find, and he has a point there, and i'd need years to figure out something epic. but im still very into it, Its my main goal, nanorobotics.
yay science and Engineering
Support nanotechnology as the technology with the biggest impact on
human life in the next 30 years
Who else is hoping this comes to making a nanosuit?
I agree. More we know, more humble we become.
if you'd like to see a mind blowing example of a near utopian nanotech future read The Golden Age, (but don't bother with the next two in the series.)
muy buen video
They don't have to wait a few years, those chips are already made regardless of whether the public has seen it yet.
2020 anyone?
Sure I only looked at this vid once.
yes you are right.
The future of this is technology is immense.
so in futur we can build a houses of glace with this technology, that is a great
This is alien technology, Mork from Ork brought to us in the 70's, Nanoo-Nanoo!
Beginning says 'High Quality.' CZcams says 240p.
and yes The Singularity is near is a great book to. i highly recommend it.
cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool this is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
interesting... In what way do you think they will be using nanotechnollogics in the way of making bombs?
Please reply :)
pls give us a nanosuit prototype
boy did you miss the boat on that call...
5:54 Igor ! ! !
please may this let some of natures victims gain health they never were given to experience
Job shortages in some areas and not enough houseing and then they would build more and it looks crappy when all u can see is apartments and condos everywhere and ur all packed in i like the country so but you do have a point
If you want to know more about the potential of nanotechnology I suggest reading "The Singularity is near: When humans transcend biology" by Ray Kurzweil, it will blow your mind away.
Yes, we are working very hard. You're welcome. :)
As a man of quantum confinement I challenge
you, man of reason, to see who can knock
themselves out first by bouncing our heads
off these padded walls. You first.
We need more nano carbon water proof solar skins( coats)
Mind = Blown
Gotta love technology ^_^
Hope their research goes well...
Thanks for the Necro-like?
Maximum strenght
if they do invent that kinda energy source i'm going to buy one and put it outside your house.
What's curious is how so many of these nano-experts have their left shoulders depressed..
perhaps the comments have gotten slightly off topic? not that people on the internet ever stay on topic for more then 30 seconds anyway....
any way, nice video not really any new information but a good way to present it
@Borderlands808 They are already working on that.
@utoostrict
Academic research creates the knowledge and modelling systems to allow for real engineering to take place.
Academic research allows source materials so that education can advance.
it's the size of their molecules if I didn't get it wrong.
any body guessed why all the images we see are black and not in color well it is because light waves dont come in the measurements of atoms the only electromagnetic wave that comes in that form is gamma radiation but you dont want a lot of that in a room they use electron microscopes to shoot electrons as they reflect they see the image electron size wide, long, high which is very small.
But going back to the molecule in the box.
These molecules look colored because of the visable light radiation to which the electrons absorb.
If the source of visable light radiation is taken away then these molecules will not look colored.
basically atoms need a source of energy to excite electon from a low vibrational electron energy level to a higher electron level.
For example.A substance looks blue because it has absorbed mainly the orange wavelength in the visable light spectrum.
"participate in a debate in a meaning way"
never on youtube.
sweet! nano-technology rules.
Damn straight.
Obviously here knows what this stuff really is.This stuff can change all matter into what ever we program it to do.
OMG ITS BENNET FROM HEROES
@hede88 thats brutal, may i quote you! ps you forgot about the elimination of pain.
sarcasm is lost on the internet isn't it. *rolls eyes*
Hunchback.

Starts with little things like solar power, ends up with a HalfLife alien and zombie killing fiasco.
@ThirdRomeAquilo It could also help Africa, you know? Say for example they manege to create very efficient and very inexpansive solar panels with the technology. It would compete with biomass as an energy source which in turn would lower food price and this is great for any country with starvation. And of course it's perfectly possible that they would eventually develop and benefit more directly from our tech.
You could only look back into time, not travelling. And looking back into time will be a result of time space bending and will not have anything to do with traveling nearly the speed of light or faster (which is impossible).
Wish I could be as optimistic. History is full of tech advances that have been redirected for commercial or military use, co-opted and made economically exclusive, suppressed or even destroyed, regardless of their potential benefits for the common good. The power of greed trumps altruism - sad but historically true.
they sad that when they take a little piece of the element it glows a color
and the energy it uses to create the light is as I understood the energy from the molecule bouncing in the walls.
and you know solar energy can be turned into electric energy so why wouldn't the light from the molecule be turned into el. energy?
I see you confused so watch the part of the video from 3:15 to 3:30
Cool story, bro.
The guy @1:38 looks like the guy from flubber :D
@galaxyman27 credo quia absurdum, literally means "I believe because its absurd"
@theend1245 what do you mean
Bill O'Reilly should watch this.
While it is uncommon some animals do reproduce asexually, for example, hydra, (sea) sponges, certain flatworms (planarians), echinoderms. (starfish, sea cucumbers, sand dollars) Some animals have the ability to reproduce either sexually or asexually (female turkeys, and some sharks, actually)
