Design of parallel robots in microrobotics
Robotica, 1997 During the past few years, there has been an increasing demand in the field of precision engineering for fine motion in multi-degrees of freedom systems. These applications motivated the development of a new robotics field called microrobotics. In this paper, we review both the design guidelines for microrobots and the advantages of using parallel ...

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these
