Korean scientists have developed magnetically controlled micro-robots as a platform for the culture and delivery of targeted stem cell therapy, which were shown to function successfully in a ...

Micro-robots operate on a scale from a few microns to several millimeters. Untethered micro devices utilize magnetic fields or acoustic waves for precise propulsion. Biodegradable gels and ...

Doctors aren’t always able to remove hard-to-reach cancerous tumors with surgery, so some patients must receive aggressive chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy — a combination that can prove ...

Researchers have developed a hybrid micro-robot, the size of a single biological cell (about 10 microns across), that can be controlled and navigated using two different mechanisms -- electric and ...

Researchers from Tel Aviv University, Israel, have created a micro-robot the size of a single biological cell that navigates using both electricity and magnetic fields and can identify and capture a ...

Researchers are continuously making innovative advancements in the robotic industry. The new development in the sector is a new robot that mimics creeping vine plants. Developed by researchers at the ...

Researchers at the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering and the Department of Chemistry at the University of Chicago have engineered tiny, spinning micro-robots that bind to immune cells to probe ...

Scientists have developed micro-robots that can perform non-invasive 3D scans to detect and diagnose colorectal cancer in ...

Locomotive magnetic soft robots are categorized based on their structural characteristics into one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), three-dimensional (3D), and fluidic types. Recently, Dr.

The micro-robots in the Penn team’s study are thin slices of magnet, about a third of a millimeter in diameter. Despite having no moving parts or sensors of their own, the researchers refer to them as ...
