Start year: 2023

Summary: This project was undertaken as an internship through the Defence Innovation Network with Nanocube Pty Ltd to develop autonomous, bioinspired nanorobitics designed to be so small that they can enter enemy territory completely undetected. Thier purpose is to gather and analyse intelligence in real-time without the need for new costly equipment. The nanorobtics will be designed to early detect chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats in order to inform timely decision-making. The nanorobotics could also be loaded onto existing and emerging autonomous systems to enhance their performance
