Mechanical stimulation is essential for regulating cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Magnetic microrobot swarms offer a promising platform for delivering targeted mechanical stimulation to cells via remote actuation under rotating magnetic fields. However, mag…
Miniature robots capable of untethered operation hold great promise for performing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in hard-to-reach regions within the human body. Nonetheless, navigating these complex and diverse physiological environments remains a significant challenge. To effectively naviga…
Introducing collective control strategies to microrobots provides a promising tool for enhancing the capability of individual microrobots and promoting the manipulation performance. However, controlling numerous micro-agents brings challenges to the precise control and deployment. Herein, an on-dema
Reconfigurable microswarms have received extensive attention recently. In this work, we propose a control strategy for a ribbon-like swarm to perform navigated locomotion with a stable pattern, and perform controllable splitting into double subswarms to reach two targets simultaneously. Two differen…
