Responsive Hydrogel-based Modular Microrobots for Multi-functional Micromanipulation
Liyuan Tan, David J. Cappelleri
Microrobots show great potential in biomedical applications such as drug delivery and cell manipulations. However, current microrobots are mostly fabricated as a single entity and…
Dynamic Simulation-Guided Design of Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots
Jiayin Xie, Chenghao Bi, David J. Cappelleri +1
Design of robots at the small scale is a trial-and-error based process, which is costly and time-consuming. There are few dynamic simulation tools available to accurately predict t…
Towards Dynamic Simulation Guided Optimal Design of Tumbling Microrobots
Jiayin Xie, Chenghao Bi, David J. Cappelleri +1
Design of robots at the small scale is a trial-and-error based process, which is costly and time-consuming. There are no good dynamic simulation tools to predict the motion or perf…
Control of Magnetic Microrobot Teams for Temporal Micromanipulation Tasks
Yiannis Kantaros, Benjamin Johnson, Sagar Chowdhury +2
In this paper, we present a control framework that allows magnetic microrobot teams to accomplish complex micromanipulation tasks captured by global Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) for…
