KurzweilAI : World’s first text message via molecular communication sent

Researchers at the University of Warwick in the UK and the York University in Canada have developed the capability to transform any generic message into binary signals. These are in turn “programmed” into evaporated alcohol molecules to demonstrate the potential of molecular communications. (...)
Dr. Weisi Guo from the School of Engineering at the University of Warwick : “But we have gone to the next level and successfully communicated continuous and generic messages over several meters.
“Potential targeted applications include wireless monitoring of sewage works and #oil rigs. This could prevent future disasters such as the bus-sized fatberg found blocking the London sewage networks in 2013 [dont je ne trouve pas d’occurrence ici, classieux], and the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010.
“They can also be used to communicate on the nanoscale, for example, in medicine, where recent advances mean it’s possible to embed sensors into the organs of the body or create miniature robots to carry out a specific task, such as targeting drugs to cancer cells.
