In Zurich a team of developers have invented a tiny football playing robot to spark young peoples interest in nanotechnology, and hopefully this will lead to inventing medical treatments.
Its about the width of three hairs, its made out of nickel and its powered by magnetic fields, it plays football with an even small ball a 'nanoball' and is able to dodge microscopic "defenders" before scoring into the world's smallest goal.
"It's hopefully the start of a long-term competition in trying to make nanotechnology and microtechnology that can get kids excited in the classroom about this stuff," said professor Bradley Nelson.
