Soon, your gadgets could self-repair
What if your computer could self-heal? A new study has found that with the help of nanomotors, electronics could be able to fix themselves.Scientists turned to the body's immune system for inspiration and have now built self-propelled nanomotors that can seek out and repair tiny scratches to electronic systems. They could one day lead to flexible batteries, electrodes, solar cells and other gadgets that heal themselves.
Researcher Jinxing Li from the University of California said that electronic circuits are very sophisticated these days, but a crack, even an extremely small one, can interrupt the flow of current and eventually lead to the failure of a device.
