The ability to steer multiple microrobots in different directions in the same workplace has
been an ongoing challenge for the field. In this paper we present a novel method of …

A major challenge for untethered micro-scale mobile robotics is the control of many agents
in the same workspace for distributed operation. In this work, we present a new method to …

This paper presents a novel method of actuation for multiple untethered microrobots with a
global magnetic field generated by a single conical permanent magnet. The microrobots in …

Assembly of micro-scale objects requires us to develop manipulators that are small enough
to apply small forces as well as robust enough to be controlled independently in a large …

Microrobots are attracting a lot of interest due to their numerous applications including micro-
manipulation and targeted drug delivery. A major challenge in microrobotics is the control of …

In this work, we develop methods for controlling multiple untethered magnetic micro-robots
(called Mag-μBots), with all dimensions under 1 mm, without the need for a specialized …

Micro robots are suited for targeted drug delivery and micro scale manufacturing because
they are small enough to navigate the passageways of the body. However, due to their small …

We use a cluster of paramagnetic microparticles to carry out a wireless two-dimensional
microassembly operation. A magnetic-based manipulation system is used to control the …

In this paper, we have developed an approach for independent autonomous navigation of
multiple microrobots under the influence of magnetic fields and validated it experimentally …

Magnetic drug carriers such as microrobots and paramagnetic microparticles have the
potential to increase the therapeutic indices by selectively targeting the diseased tissue …
