Nanotechnology is the technology that deals with the manipulation of individual atoms and molecules at the nanoscale, between 1 to 100 nanometers. While nanorobots do not yet exist, nanotechnology is used to create products like tennis rackets with carbon nanotubes that are much lighter and stronger than regular rackets, weighing five times less while being over 100 times stronger than steel. There are 100 million nanometers in 1 meter.
