Microscale metal fabrication for microelectronics, sensors, and MEMS devices requires precise automated positioning and shape control, particularly challenging on conductive substrates where non-transparency limits conventional vision-based positioning. This paper presents a high-precision vision-gu
Untethered miniature robots, after ultra-long-distance transportation to the lesion by continuum robots, can further deliver drugs to the deep fine tissues. Specifically, the magnetic steering continuum robot with the follower-the-leader manner enhances the safety of channel construction, while the
The magnetic soft robot has potential applications in biomimetic, soft interaction, and biomedical fields. However, its functionality depends on deformation patterns and locomotion modes, challenging the fabrication of complex structures with precise magnetization. Therefore, we developed a programm
This paper presents an automated assembly method for the efficient and cost-effective fabrication of high-aspect-ratio stepped-end (HARSE) microneedles for flexible neural microelectrode implantation. The core process is a novel variable stiffness insertion (VSI) method, employing a vision-guided sy
