On-Surface Locomotion of Particle Based Microrobots Using Magnetically Induced Oscillation

The low Reynolds number condition presents a fundamental constraint on designing locomotive mechanisms for microscale robots. We report on the use of an oscillating magnetic field to induce on-surface translational motion of particle based microrobots. The particle based microrobots consist of micro...
