Endovascular Magnetically Guided Robots: Navigation Modeling and Optimization [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2012
This paper deals with the benefits of using a nonlinear model-based approach for controlling magnetically guided therapeutic microrobots in the cardiovascular system. Such robots used for minimally invasive interventions consist of a polymer binded aggregate of nanosized ferromagnetic particles functionalized by drug-conjugated micelles.

Magnetic-Field-Inspired Navigation for Quadcopter Robot in Unknown Environments [PDF]

open access: yes2019 International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2019
In this paper, a magnetic-field-inspired robot navigation is used to navigate an under-actuated quad-copter towards the desired position amidst previously-unknown arbitrary-shaped convex obstacles. Taking inspiration from the phenomena of magnetic field interaction with charged particles observed in nature, the algorithm outperforms previous reactive ...
