* This video, depicting [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYxBy_Sz3Wc claytronics]. This is just a simulation, but it is running of actual software. Using a sort of nanobot programming language, a CAD file gets read in, and the nanobots reshape themselves to match it. The program is supposedly only a couple of pages long. For now this is just software, nothing to worry about—but the guy who made this video thinks that he will have the hardware to do this in real life within the decade.
* Middle Ages style stained glass contains gold nanoparticles. [[Clock Punk]] nanotech ahoy!
* One of TRIZ methods is trying to solve the problem with certain ideal machines. One of which, coincidentally, is a mass of "tiny people" who can do basic things like holding together or moving, know what they have to do and when. If you can do this, the next step is to move toward conventional sizes and methods until your machine actually can be built, of course.
