The Utility Fog, or UFog, invented by Dr. Hall, is like a dreamland material which consists of smart, tiny and identical nano-robots, named foglets. Each foglet is mostly made of arms and a nanocomputer and would be 6 to 10 millionths of a meter in size. The individual foglets would take up only 2 to 3% of the space in the volume they fill, leaving the rest of the space for air and light. Hence, a room filled with UFog would be transparent up close, somewhat cloudy at a distance. You could fill a house with them and they would be unobtrusive.

The Secret to this future technology. Tiny foglet!

With all the computing power contained in these trillions of foglets they could be programmed with a wide spectrum of behaviors that mimic materials of different mass, motion, appearance, and function.

When joined these foglets could make everything you imagine

They could:

• Change a certain volume from one substance to another, for example, change running water to solid wood
• Make objects appear and disappear, hence furnish your house
• Build entire cities, whether in Bogota or on the Moon
• Monitor your bodily functions, such as heart rate, etc. and take preventative action if necessary
• Have your DNA pre-programmed, thus provide you with total immunity from all bacterial and viral agents, such as colds and AIDS
• Perform surgery on the spot
• And much more!

The possibilities are virtually endless but we can turn our imagination on, and imagine future world filled with this friendly fog.

For example, rather than paint the walls in your home, just coat them with this material and they could be a different color every day, or become a floor-to-ceiling TV. Floors could look like hardwood, but feel soft to our feet.

Furniture and decorations could change into anything our hearts desire just by wishing it so. And this intelligent fog would keep us safe from storms. Even the impact from a nuclear explosion could be rendered harmless.

No more home security worries because when you leave your home for work or go to vacation, intelligent fog could convert everything, including the house itself, into air molecules. Upon return, it would sense your presence and restore everything to normal.

Surround your car with this material and in the event of a crash, it would enable you to take a 100-mph impact without even messing your hair. However, you’ll never get in an accident as UFog could one day make all roads and vehicles accident-free.

Although utility fog sounds like a fantastic, far-future technology, it could truly be feasible in the next couple of decades.
