The photocell approach includes projects to make self-replicating systems from entirely synthetic components.

A clanking replicator is an artificial self-replicating system that relies on conventional large-scale technology and automation.

Nanobe-(n) Any living or self-replicating system smaller than 500 nanometers in linear dimension.

Many authorities who find it impossible are clearly citing sources for complex autotrophic self-replicating systems.

For a discussion of other chemical bases for hypothetical self-replicating systems, see alternative biochemistry.

Research began into synthetic self-replicating systems.

My goal now is 100 percent focused on getting a self-replicating system, to make synthetic life.

Though such a network of factories spread across the landscape wouldn't resemble a pregnant robot, it would form a self-expanding, self-replicating system.

Living things show that the machinery inside a self-replicating system can be ignored in a way that the machinery inside an automobile cannot.

The self-complementary "recipe" has been incorporated universally in self-replicating systems synthesized in other research groups.
