Utility Fog consists of a mass of tiny robots. Unlike water fog, they do not float in the air but form a lattice by holding hands in 12 directions (corresponding to the struts in an octet truss).

4) Architecture
5) Physical Properties
6) General Properties
7) Advantages Of A Utility Fog Environment
8) Applications And Uses
9) The Limits Of Utility Fog
10) Conclusion
3. Invented by Dr.J.Stross Hall in 2001
Based on the concept of molecular nanotechnology
Foglets consists of microscopic computers ,gears,motors
with telescopic arms
Arms interlock –power & communication
Individual foglets 2-3 % of space
4. Robot (foglet) with the size of a human cell
Swarm of foglets known as utility fog
Enables : -
creation
levitation
manipulation
teleportation
shape shifting
5.
6. Nanotech designs based on carbons
Forms a crystal which is very stiff and strong
Structural element of Foglet made of aluminium oxide
Each Foglet has 12 arms
Arms rotate on the joint at the base
Gripper rotate about arm axis
7.
8. Little robot called Foglet - 12 arms.
Grippers at the end of arms.
Foglets can simulate any environment
In a room filled with Foglets –walk without noticing
anything.
10. Couplers
- Communication and power control
Optical waveguide
- Communication from user
Power and electrical transmission line
- Power supply in foglet
Grippers
- Locking foglets together

12. Native Mode :
Mobility concept-Can move in different directions and can perform
any mechanical action
Example : Table Solid and Locked
Fog Mode :
Static concept-Static foglets ,Pixelate, to transmit information and
sound
Example:Display screen on immovable objects with 100 micron
resolution with a processing power of 286 PC
13. Foglets run on electricity
They store hydrogen as energy source
Foglets slide or move objects
If this motion dissipative consumes lot of power
Arms being pushed receive same amount of energy
14. 12 arms & 3 axis control
Simpler controllers give commands
Each computer - nano watts
Trillions of computers –few kW heat produced
This reduces 90 % heat generation
15. Paint the wall with U-Fog
Make walls of U-Fog
Can form any object
Obsolete objects can form floor
Any hardness ,temp.
Same precision as measured by human senses
16. Fog house –protection within 98% of lethal blast area
Bacteria free
Accidents in factories can be avoided
Household accidents avoided- staircas, knife , bookshelf.
Factories- transportation & operation of machines
17. High strength & low weight
High heat
Anything req chemical transformation
Can simulate wind but not air
Unemployment
18. Replacement for all the technologies around us
More compatible and sophisticated
Safer environment
Wonder world making life easy and lazy
