Magnetic field points the way for metallic nanorods with hydrogen peroxide propulsion Remote Control NanomotorLike their normally sized analogues, nanoscale machines and robots need motors to function. Some time ago, a team at Pennsylvania State University developed a clever engine to "drive" nanoscopic metal rods; however, until now, these tiny "submarines" roamed at random through the solution. Now the research team headed by Ayusman Sen has made more progress: their "sequel" can be steered by remote control.
