(Nanowerk News) Imagine a cloud of sensors, each the size of a grain of sand, blown aloft by hurricane winds and relaying data on the storm to weather stations below. Or picture tiny robotic chips drifting through a human artery to locate, and eradicate, a hidden clot.

SMARTDUST is a miniaturize sensors of many tiny microelectromechanical

systems (MEMS). It has a basic system sensor, computation, power, communication abilities. It works based on sensing light, temperature, vibration, magnetism or chemicals; networked wirelessly; and with some permissions if we set up it. The reality that the smart dust sensor node can "talk" to each other through a network of wireless radio signals makes the technology a reliable way to track the different industrial systems. The smart dust concept was introduced by Kristofer S. J. Pister (University of California) in 2001, though similar ideas existed in science fiction before then. A recent review discusses various techniques to take smart dust in sensor networks beyond millimeter dimensions to the micrometer level. Smart dust devices will be based on sub-voltage and deep-sub-voltage nano electronics and include the micro power sources with all solid state impulse super capacitors (nonionic super capacitors). A typical application scenario is scattering a hundred of these sensors around a building or around a hospital to monitor temperature or humidity, track patient movements, or inform of disasters, such as earthquakes. In the military, they can perform as a remote sensor chip to track enemy movements, detect poisonous gas or radioactivity. Smart dust is capable of revolution because the sensor is small enough to be placed anywhere and work wirelessly, sharing data. Thanks to recent breakthroughs, these "motes" (all dusts to be left) in silicon and fabrication techniques, they have the size of a grain of sand, for each would contain sensors, computing circuits, supplying power and considered bidirectional wireless communications technology. Motes would gather all of data, transfer information to computer by using two-way band radio between motes at distances approaching 1,000 feet. In the future, smart dust have multi commercial properties, using with difference purposes, example perceiving range of vibrations in industrial medical equipment so as to tracking patient movements in a hospital room. keep track of temperature or humidity for all building or inform of disasters, such as earthquakes. Smart Dust has a variety of medical applications, military and security and more... Dots, also called nanocrystals is a semiconductor a few molecules wide. They can emit light or expression of different electronic properties. That is, the point may attract or repel. This makes it possible someday for them to work like robots in bloodstream. Dots have different sizes but usually 20-80 atoms wide. They can be used as indicator lights -

injected into, say, a tissue so cancer doctors and researchers can "track" the cancer. They could theoretically be used to "tag" and then track intruders in situations of military and security. Researchers at the University of California, San Diego, have developed a silicon chip the size of dust that detects biological agents and chemical. The terrorists using it dissolve in toxic water or toxic gas and spray in the atmosphere. Michael Sailor, professor of chemistry and biochemistry at UCSD, said his group is a combination of tiny sensors with wireless sensing systems. He said that the particles can be used to deliver drugs to the eye as treatment for retinal degeneration.

Proposal:
SMART DUST and OUR PETS. Sometime we spend some instances , our pets died suddenly because their disease did not cured in time or until we know their disease they really got serious illness. Difficult for us to discover what going on with our animals, because they can not talk to us. Our animals live in the environment close to the ground so they are easy vulnerable by diseases, common diseases of animals: Lack of nutrients: it doesnt mean they dont eat enough. Maybe their owner get busy, so they have no time to feed their pets many kind of foods, that reasons their pets just take some kind of vitamin. Excess nutrients: when they provide a lot of foods for each meal, leading to obesity, cholesterol. Gallstone disease: Gallstones, or choleliths, a solid precipitates formed from bile. The "rock" can occur in the gallbladder or the bile Road (tube leading from the liver to the small intestine). Parasites: such as fleas, bugs, lice, Hookworms, Heartworms, Roundworms, Tapeworms, Whipworms, are generally well known.

Hookworm

Fish Tapeworm

Dwarf Tape worm

Rabies: is a zoonotic disease (a disease that is transmitted from animals to humans) that is caused by a virus. Through close contact with infected saliva via bites or scratches. Rabies is nearly always fatal when left untreated.

Dog rabies Respiratory tract infections: such as the common cold. Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is an infectious disease, which attacks and weakens the immune system of the cat, making the animal susceptible to infection, FIV is similar to the immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and common diseases affecting cats have body weakness. Chlamydia is conjunctivitis.

Corneal erosion (stained with diagnostic flourescein dye) in a cat, caused by FHV-1.

Feline leukemia virus is leukemia cancer: The virus is spread from one cat to another via saliva, nasal secretions, feces, and milk. Beside that our pet also got some another diseases, the parasites living on the feathers, living in the intestinal system, sugar diabetes by endocrine disorder, obesity vv The diseases if not detected early for timely treatment, following a long period will lead to very serious consequences for our pets, even fatal.

USER TARGET:
To solve any problems above, why we don't importing a tiny smart dust system inside pet body, this system will be checking whole their body, it will combine together information's inside and after that it will signaling to computer outside by using two-way band radio. It make we feel safety more for our pets, because now we have been able to easily track changes occurring within the animal body.

MY PROPOSAL:
Smart Dust Care is a tiny chip, put into the bodies of animals. Smart Dust Care will run as a camera filming inside the body of animal, it will gather in all of images filming on its way and sent to the computer outside by radio signals, so it can help you to observe any common in parts of the animal in heat sensor, the chemical reactions of the abnormal red cells, white blood cells, platelets, acid imbalance.... Smart dust care will alarm when inside our pet's body get unusual. Thanks to smart dust care, so now you can easy to know how disease, serious of disease to have the best treat for our pets. Smart Dust Care chip will be put into the animal body by a very easy way, because the smart dust care size is very small, the size of a grain of dust, so the Smart Dust Care could go into the animals respiratory tract, esophagus road by the water or food for the animals etc. ... also for aquatic species, just sprinkle on lakes that have fish or other aquatic species and Smart Dust Care will automatically report on the PC are showing signs of disease in any region. Smart dust care route: progress of the Smart Dust Care starting will go from the esophagus to the stomach, to small intestine and then Smart Dust Care would follow the nutrients absorbed into the blood. At this time Smart Dust Care will stick to the red cells, white blood cells, platelets, etc. ... exploring and filming inside the body as a tiny camera, after that Smart Dust Care emit signals to external computer, at this time you are just sitting and could easily observe all developments in your pet body. Even the Smart Dust Care chip can also provide medicine for the animal body easily under the control of the owner through a computer screen.

NEGATIVE EFFECTS:
Because Smart Dust Care are strange objects if put into the pet's body, the antibody of pet's body will eliminate the Smart Dust Cares easily. Or the route from the small intestine into the blood, the Smart Dust Care can carry the harmful bacteria from the small intestine follow nutrients and absorbed into the bloodstream causing septicemia.

SOLUTION:
So that before introducing Smart Dust Care into the animal body, the Smart Dust Care particles should be wrapped outside a layer of cells consistent with the animals environment. This helps ease the Smart Dust Care to adapt to environmental conditions in the animals. This phenomenon may reduce the body's rejection of material when we inject Smart Dust Care.
