International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research and Engineering, 2019 Nanorobotics is an emerging field for designing and building small machines or robots ranging in size from 0.1–10 micrometers. They are microscopic in size; a large number of them may be required to work together to perform microscopic tasks. The field of medicine is expected to receive the largest improvement from Nanorobotics.

Acoustic communication for medical nanorobots [PDF]
Nano Communication Networks, 2012 Communication among microscopic robots (nanorobots) can coordinate their activities for biomedical tasks. The feasibility of in vivo ultrasonic communication is evaluated for micron-size robots broadcasting into various types of tissues. Frequencies between 10MHz and 300MHz give the best tradeoff between efficient acoustic generation and attenuation ...
