Currently, soft robotics technologies are creating the means of robotic abilities and are
required for the development of biomimetic robotics. In recent years, earthworm-inspired soft …

A novel miniature biped piezoelectric robot (MBPR) was designed with a patch-type beam
structure. The robot utilizes an asymmetric friction-inertial driving principle to realize linear …

In this article, we propose a novel magnetic-actuated multimodule drug sustained-release
minirobot (DSM) manipulated by an external rotating electromagnetic field. The structure of …

Magnetic field-driven soft microrobots have widespread applications in biomedical science,
microfluidic chips, nanoengineering, and various other domains. However, the existing …

This paper presents a novel double-direction inchworm in-pipe robot, called the Cam-
Linkage Robot (CLR), used to carry sensors and instruments to perform inspection and …

This paper proposes a novel origami-inspired cube pipe structure driven by magnetic force,
and investigates its deformation and trigger force using experimental and numerical …

Electromagnetic coil systems (ECSs) have been widely used for actuation and motion
control of magnetic micro/nanorobots. In this paper, two typical ECSs with different system …

As a fundamental instrument in vascular interventional surgery, guidewires inherently face
limitations when navigating through complex curved blood vessel bifurcations due to their …

This paper proposes a main-functional module working concept for capsule robots, and the
capsule robots consist of a main module and functional modules based on this concept. The …

This paper demonstrates the control system of a single magnetic micro-robot driven by
combined coils. The combined coils consist of three pairs of Helmholtz coils and three pairs …
