Nanobots don't like touching!

Whoa! Now this is interesting, some of our cutting edge nanotechnology researchers from University of Leicester have recently thought of a new way of allowing nanobots to manipulate small objects without touching them. No Dude! They won’t be swearing at them or using remote controls, instead they will use the Zero Point Energy so as to cause the well documented Casimir effect.
According to the researchers who have a knack of finding extremely imaginative ways of spending a fortune, this would be a great advantage over the old fashioned touch therapy which tends to get sticky on the microscopic level. Well I hate to be a critic but the only problem is that we have been hearing about nanobots and their scary magical powers for the last couple of decades or so since Eric Drexler’s Engines of Creation (1986) and the only functional nanobot till now heard about is in Star trek or Red Dwarf. Well I will be back in 2026 with cutting edge breakthrough in nanobots!
