Magnetic Robots: Small‐Scale Magnetic Actuators with Optimal Six Degrees‐of‐Freedom (Adv. Mater. 23/2021)

Abstract

Magnetic miniature robots have great potential to create a paradigm shift for robotics, materials science, and biomedicine because they can non-invasively access highly confined and enclosed spaces to perform a vast range of small-scale manipulation tasks. In article number 2100170, Guo Zhan Lum and co-workers introduce optimal magnetic miniature robots that can display unprecedented dexterity, manipulation capabilities, and functionalities.
