DESCRIPTION OF AN EXAMPLE
The invention will now be described by way of an example.

(a) a transmission means, which is the internet in the present embodiment example,
(b) input means, in this example internet data/signal provider, and
(c) molecular assembling means located at a remote position from the input means.
In operation, a user located at the molecular assembling means remotely activates the input means which then transmits predetermined signals/data across the transmission means to the output means. An object manufactured by molecular manufacturing and associated with the transmitted signals/data is then manufactured at the remote position from the input means.
The input means may include molecular disassembling means adapted to take apart structures a few at a time, recording structural information at each step.
By means of the assembling means in accordance with the invention, objects may be disassembling, analysed and molecular data of the object may be transmitted over great distances and a replica and/or original of the object may take place.
The assembly system in accordance with the invention is further characterized in that it includes the following components:
(a) transmission means for transmitting signals and/or sub- atomic and/or atomic particles and/or impulses of energy; (b) input means for providing the signals and/or sub-atomic and/or atomic particles and/or impulses of energy to be transmitted to the transmission means; and
(c) molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy assembling means adapted to receive the signals and/or sub-atomic and/or atomic particles and/or impulses of energy from the transmission means and capable of molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy manufacturing of an object defined by the sub-atomic and/or atomic particles and/or impulses of energy.
The input means includes molecular or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy disassembling means adapted to take apart structures, and recording structural information at each step.
The molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy disassembling means is automated. The molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy assembling means is also automated.
The disassembling means is adapted to utilise nanotechnology. The molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy assembling means also utilise nanotechnology.
The transmission means is adapted to transport molecules and/or atoms and/or sub-atomic particles and/or impulses of energy associated with the signals.
The object manufactured by the molecular and/or sub-atomic manufacturing means is a replica or an original of a structure disassembled by the signals and/or molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy disassembling means. The original can thus be reassembled. The method can be repeated as required. A time delay from transmission of signals by the transmission means and/or receipt by the molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy assembling means until the object is manufactured can be programmed. A time delay from provision of signals to the transmission means and/or receipt by the molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy assembling means until the object is manufactured can also be programmed if required. The transmission of the signals can be real-time if required.
The transmission means can include the Internet, a local-area network (LAN), a wide-area network (WAN), any other networks, mobile telephone communication, land-line telephone communication, radio communication, satellite communication, radio-waves, micro-waves, electromagnetic impulses and any other forms of transmission and/or communication.
The signals can include atomic and/or sub-atomic particles and/or impulses of energy. The signals and/or atomic and/or sub-atomic particles and/or impulses of energy can be provided to the input means in electronic form. The signals can be directly obtained by the input means from an input image and/or object and/or human and/or impulses of energy. At least some of the signals can transmit data.
The system can thus be utilised for business means, such as entertainment, broadcasting, education, advertising, promotions, marketing, selling and/or transportation.
The transmission of the signals can be controlled from the input means and/or from the molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy assembling means. The transmission means, the input means and/or the molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy assembling means can be remotely operated. The transmission means, the input means and/or the molecular and/or sub-atomic and/or impulses of energy assembling means are adapted to be located far apart. The remote operation can be via a telephone landline, the internet, a local-area network (LAN), a wide-area network (WAN), any other networks, mobile telephone communication, land-line telephone communication, radio communication, satellite communication, radio-waves, micro-waves, electromagnetic impulses and any other forms of transmission and/or communication.
