Microfluidic Mixing with the Dynamic Control of Magnetic Actuation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration and flow field visualization of magnetically actuated L‐shaped microrobots displaying cooperative vortex generation for enhanced microscale mixing. The left side shows the electromagnetic actuation setup, which enables programmable control of rotational direction and frequency.

A Novel Milli‐Scale Magnetic Robot Exploiting Rotation for Controlled Magnetic Particles Release

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Delivering magnetic particles can become a game changer in minimally invasive medicine. To cope with this challenge, a magnetically actuated milli‐scale carrier leveraging rotation to perform on‐demand tunable release of magnetic particles across multiple release events is presented.

A Female‐Locust‐Inspired Hybrid Soft‐Stiff Robotic Digger: Mimetics and Implications for Digging Efficiency

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Female desert locusts dig underground to lay their eggs. They displace soil, rather than removing it, to create a tunnel. We analyze burrowing dynamics and 3D kinematics and design a locust‐inspired hybrid soft–stiff robot that reproduces this mechanism. The results show the natural strategy minimizes energy, whereas alternative patterns raise costs up

Soft Artificial Ciliary Brush with Integrated Haptic Feedback for Efficient Airway Mucus Cleaning

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A fundamental mucus cleaning mechanism is reported, which utilizes both artificial cilia mechanical sweeping and suction‐based mucus cleaning. A novel haptic feedback interface for the artificial cilia provides touch feedback on tissue contact, enhancing operator control and safety.
