Scientists review hybrid micro- and nanorobots that fuse magnetic steering with light-driven propulsion, enabling precise ...

Scientists from University of Macau designed a novel multi-section magnetic soft robot maneuvered by an associated collaborative multirobot navigation system. A research paper by scientists at the ...

Micro-robots operate on a scale from a few microns to several millimeters. Untethered micro devices utilize magnetic fields or acoustic waves for precise propulsion. Biodegradable gels and ...

Locomotive magnetic soft robots are categorized based on their structural characteristics into one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), three-dimensional (3D), and fluidic types. Recently, Dr.

In nature, the ten-micron small, single-cell microalgae are fantastic swimmers, propelled by their two whip-like flagella at the front. However, it wasn’t clear what would happen if scientists covered ...

A research team from the School of Engineering of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has developed an innovative magnetic actuation platform that enables the one-step formation ...

The next generation of soft robots might be folding and sliding as effortlessly as living tissue, say a team of engineers who have created “magnetic muscles” with 3D printing. Filling elastic, ...

Most brain surgery requires doctors to remove part of the skull to access hard-to-reach areas or tumors. It's invasive, risky, and it takes a long time for the patient to recover. We have developed ...

A breakthrough in medical technology could soon change how sinus infections are treated. Scientists have created micro-robots for sinus infection treatment that can enter the nasal cavity, eliminate ...
