Modular Electronic Microrobots With Onboard Sensor‐Program‐Steered Locomotion

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Modular electronic smartlet microrobots integrate ambient‐light energy harvesting, photodetection, programmable CMOS control, and bubble‐based actuation within a sub‐millimeter fold‐up architecture. A 58‐bit on‐board CMOS chiplet enables sensor–program steered switching between independently addressable actuators, achieving closed‐loop 2D navigation in
