5. Can you give a concrete example of a simple medical nanorobot?

One very simple nanorobot that I designed a few years ago is the artificial mechanical red cell, which I call a "respirocyte."

What if you added 1 liter of respirocytes into your bloodstream, the maximum that could possibly be safe? You could then hold your breath for nearly 4 hours if sitting quietly at the bottom of a swimming pool. Or if you were sprinting at top speed, you could run for at least 15 minutes before you had to take a breath!
