Optical assembly of bio-hybrid micro-robots
The combination of micro synthetic structures with bacterial flagella motors represents an actual trend for the construction of self-propelled micro-robots. The development of methods for fabrication of these bacteria-based robots is a first crucial step towards the realization of functional miniature and autonomous moving robots. We present a novel scheme based on optical trapping to fabricate...
متن کاملBio-Inspired Micro Robots Swimming in Channels
Swimming micro robots that mimic micro organisms have a huge potential in biomedical applications such as opening clogged hard-to-reach arteries, targeted drug delivery and diagnostic operations. Typically, a micro swimmer that consists of a magnetic bead as its body, which is attached to a rigid helical tail, is actuated by a rotating external magnetic field and moved forward in the direction ...
متن کاملSensing and Actuation for Micro Bio Robots
Scaling down the size of robots enables new ways of exploring and manipulating microscale environments. Specifically in the field of biology, microrobots can be a tool for single cell analysis; such as for manipulating cells [1], measuring cell interactions [2] and cell surgery [3]. To create microrobots, we need to miniturize actuation and sensing capability to the cell scale. Bacteria have be...
متن کاملTowards micro-assembly of hybrid MOEMS components on reconfigurable silicon free-space micro-optical bench
The 3D integration of hybrid chips is a viable approach for the micro-optical technologies to reduce the costs of assembly and packaging. In this paper a technology platform for the hybrid integration of MOEMS components on a reconfigurable free-space silicon micro-optical bench is presented. In this approach a desired optical component (e.g. micromirror, microlens) is integrated with removable...
متن کاملHydrodynamic surrogate models for bio-inspired micro-swimming robots
Research on untethered micro-swimming robots is growing fast owing to their potential impact on minimally invasive medical procedures. Candidate propulsion mechanisms of robots are based on flagellar mechanisms of micro organisms such as rotating rigid helices and trav-eling plane-waves on flexible rods and parameterized by wavelength, amplitude and frequency. For design and control of swimming...
