A Strain‐engineered Helical Structure as a Self‐adaptive Magnetic Microswimmer

ChemNanoMat, 2021
AbstractInspired by flagellar bacteria, helical microswimmers are proposed in many biomedical applications due to their efficient propulsion at low Reynolds numbers. And the ability to swim through a confined environment such as a blood capillary is an urgent issue to further expand their functions both in vivo and in vitro.

3-D Autonomous Manipulation System of Helical Microswimmers With Online Compensation Update

IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, 2021
Steering microswimmers toward 3-D autonomous manipulation tasks has received extensive attention. Our previous works have accomplished autonomously manipulating microswimmers in the 2-D space. This article aims to extend the 2-D autonomous manipulation to 3-D autonomous manipulation.

Image-Based Visual Servoing of Helical Microswimmers for Planar Path Following

IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, 2020
Magnetically actuated microswimmers have attracted researchers to investigate their swimming characteristics and controlled actuation. Although plenty of studies on actuating helical microswimmers have been carried out, robust closed-loop controls should be still explored for practical applications.

Note: On-chip multifunctional fluorescent-magnetic Janus helical microswimmers

Review of Scientific Instruments, 2016
Microswimmers integrated into microfluidic devices that are capable of self-illumination through fluorescence could revolutionize many aspects of technology, especially for biological applications. Few illumination and propulsion techniques of helical microswimmers inside microfluidic channels have been demonstrated. This paper presents the fabrication,

Closed-loop 3D path following of scaled-up helical microswimmers

2016 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2016
This paper addresses the problem of 3D path following of magnetic helical microswimmers in closed-loop. An error kinematic model in a local frame with sideslip and attack angles is used to express the motion of the helical microswimmer. A new derivation of the chained form with three inputs and five states is used to linearize the kinematic model in ...

Magnetic Actuated Shape-memory Helical Microswimmers with Programmable Recovery Behaviors

Journal of Bionic Engineering, 2021
Inspired by bacterial flagella in nature, magnetic helical microswimmer is an ideal model to perform complex task in a low Reynolds number environments. Shape Memory Polymers (SMPs) with desirable properties are considered as one of the most preferred options for the development of small-scale robots. However, fabricating and programming strategies are
