Towards Mobile Microrobot Swarms for Additive Micromanufacturing
In this paper, a novel approach to achieving the independent control of multiple magnetic microrobots is presented. The approach utilizes a specialized substrate consisting of a fine grid of planar, MEMS-fabricated micro coils of the same size as the microrobots (≤ 500 μm). The coils can be used to generate real magnetic potentials and, therefore, attractive and repulsive forces in the workspac...
متن کاملMicro-masonry for 3D additive micromanufacturing.
Transfer printing is a method to transfer solid micro/nanoscale materials (herein called 'inks') from a substrate where they are generated to a different substrate by utilizing elastomeric stamps. Transfer printing enables the integration of heterogeneous materials to fabricate unexampled structures or functional systems that are found in recent advanced devices such as flexible and stretchable...
متن کاملHigh-Level Object-Oriented Program Language for Mobile Microrobot Control
The need for autonomous agents working in unknown or rapidly changing environments showed the shortcomings of conventional robot control. Another problem is the large number of theories, how robots can work, especially in microrobotic environments. Programming these working-cells should be standardised for helping us being more effective. We have already created a general programming language f...
متن کاملKeeping Mobile Robot Swarms Connected
Designing robust algorithms for mobile agents with reliable communication is difficult due to the distributed nature of computation, in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) the matter is exacerbated by the need to ensure connectivity. Existing distributed algorithms provide coordination but typically assume connectivity is ensured by other means. We present a connectivity service that encapsulates a...
متن کاملTowards Autonomous Micro UAV Swarms
Micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) such as quadrocopters have gained great popularity over the last years, both as a research platform and in various application fields. However, some complex application scenarios call for the formation of swarms consisting of multiple drones. In this paper a platform for the creation of such swarms is presented. It is based on commercially available quadroc...
