The waving carbon layer can be the first self-repairing material. The idea is that when the material is intact. It will be stiff. When the bite of that carbon layer is missing material is waving. That waving movement will make it possible that the bites of that material are finding themselves again. The structure can form fullerene molecules.
And there is possible to connect those fullerene molecules by using the electromagnetic interaction. The fullerene molecules can load electricity. If every second of them is loaded with electricity the static load will pull the material together. There is also possible to put iron atoms or molecules to fullerene and magnetize those things.
But the self-repairing materials and structures are researched for a long time.
The self-repairing structures and the self-building racks are possible to create. The system connects itself to one form automatically. It will look like a group of steel snakes or giant spanners. Each of those bites knows its place in its entirety. Then the other types of robots which form is like the caterpillar track will go in the structure. And then those robots act like the walking layers on the self-assembling rack.
There is made researches on nanotubes that are normally laying as the layer. At the end of some nanotubes is the magnetic system that rises those nanotubes to 3D-box looking structure. That kind of thing can use in intelligent bullet-proof vests and intelligent armors. When the bullet touches the most out layer the magnets will pull those nanotubes to cell structure where are multiple layers of small boxes. That will pull kinetic energy to itself.
There is the possibility to make layers that are repairing themselves. The systems that can make that thing might be like the combination of Legos and microchips. Every each of those bites knows its position in its entirety. In that kind of structure, the system is a small robot that is moving in its position automatically. But when we are thinking about nanotechnology and self-repairing materials. That might be elastic we are facing one thing.
The nanotubes can equip with teeth that are touching together. That makes them act like some sea worms. And those robots can create large structures together. Those robot worms can also repair one member of the entirety if that thing is damaged.
The needed technology is like small cables that are like velcro tapes. Those structures would move like snakes or millipedes. Every foot of those tiny robots is a manipulator that touches each other.
The head and sides of those small wires would be strings that are turning into loops and hooks. Then those strings are touching each other they would connect themselves like velcros. Then if those structures are separated they would need to find themselves. And then the system will stabilize the connection.
If one of those robots is damaged. The production unit will make the new robot. The thing that makes the new robot find its place is quite easy. The remaining robots are sending their ID code to the store or production unit and then the unit knows where the new robot should go. The thing is that the new types of technology might be even more fundamental like this.
