On–Off Switchable Micromotors for Use in Steerable Microvehicles

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Electrically controllable micromotors and microvehicles are developed by tuning the diffusion of the fuel. Self‐propelled micromotors using bubble propulsion show great promise for miniaturized devices with multiuse purposes such as cargo delivery and sensing. However, there is currently no method to electrically switch the micromotors on or off. Here,

Frequency dependence of acoustic waves in marine sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In situ techniques provide the most reliable method of examining the geoacoustical properties of marine sediments. In the past, individual in situ surveys have only been able to examine compressional waves over a maximum frequency range of 100 Hz to 50 ...

Information Transmission Strategies for Self‐Organized Robotic Aggregation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how information transmission influences the neighbor‐based self‐organized aggregation of swarm robots. We focus specifically on local interactions regarding information transfer and categorize previous studies based on the functions of the information exchanged.

Development of a new diagnostic device for extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy

open access: yes, 2004
Extracorporeal Shock-Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is the leading technique for the non-invasive treatment of urinary stones. Thousands of ultrasound shocks are focused on the stones in order to break them into fragments small enough to be passed naturally by ...
