The development of 3D-printed hydrogel cilia marks a significant leap in soft microrobotics, enabling fast, programmable actuation for microscale applications.
Cilia are micrometer-sized biological structures that occur frequently in nature. Their characteristic high-frequency, three-dimensional beating motions (5–40 Hz) play indispensable roles inside the ...
Magnetic microrobotics represents a rapidly evolving field at the intersection of materials science, engineering and biomedicine. By leveraging the unique properties of magnetic materials, researchers ...
Bionaut Labs, a company that makes micro-robotics used in the treatment of central nervous system diseases, has raised $43 million in series B financing. Bionaut’s robots work to deliver drugs at deep ...
Abstract: Millimeter-scale mechanisms, from novel actuators and sensors to insect-inspired flying vehicles, have applications in medical devices, infrastructure inspection, small satellites, and more.
