SUMMARYThis paper discusses suitable mechanisms and functions of a mobile microrobot from the point of view ofscale effects. Several assumptions are made using animalscaling. A large scale model is shown to demonstrate these mechanisms. Moreover, microsized models have been built on silicon wafers by using polysilicon as rigidplates and polyimide as ...

Bacterial microsystems and microrobots
Biomedical Microdevices, 2012Microorganisms and specifically motile bacteria have been recently added to the list of micro-actuators typically considered for the implementation of microsystems and microrobots. Such trend has been motivated by the fact these microorganisms are self-powered actuators with overall sizes at the lower end of the micrometer range and which have proven ...

Oxygen sensing using microrobots
2010 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology, 2010We present a luminescence oxygen sensor incorporated in a wireless intraocular microrobot for minimally-invasive diagnosis. This microrobot can be accurately controlled in the intraocular cavity by applying magnetic fields. The microrobot consists of a magnetic body susceptible to magnetic fields and a sensor coating.

Swimming Microrobot Optical Nanoscopy
Nano Letters, 2016Optical imaging plays a fundamental role in science and technology but is limited by the ability of lenses to resolve small features below the fundamental diffraction limit. A variety of nanophotonic devices, such as metamaterial superlenses and hyperlenses, as well as microsphere lenses, have been proposed recently for subdiffraction imaging.
