Miniaturised diagnostics that could be implanted for early diagnostic of illness. Here, the nano-object has to be able to register, memorize and communicate some specific data (temperature, sun exposition, concentration of any substance). The storage of the information can be magnetic, optical, geometrical (the shape of the molecule and its properties can be altered by the event measured). ADN chips could also be used. 7, record 1, English, - nano%2Dobject

Un objet nanométrique sera donc constitué d'un petit nombre d'atomes ou de molécules. On peut considérer que l'ambition des nanosciences sera de fabriquer, caractériser et manipuler les objets les plus petits que l'homme puisse concevoir. Les objets «classiques» macroscopiques sont constitués d'un nombre impressionnant de molécules ou d'atomes. [...] Il convient toutefois de remarquer que ces objets nanométriques n'ont de sens [que s'ils sont insérés ou que s'ils font partie] d'objets plus grands (de la taille du micromètre), eux-mêmes inclus dans des dispositifs manipulables à l'échelle humaine. 6, record 1, French, - nano%2Dobjet
