本文介绍了一种创新的病毒功能化磁性微机器人（virus@microbots）平台，该平台巧妙结合了噬菌体（phage）的生物靶向性和微机器人（microbots）的磁驱动力，通过机械破坏与生物裂解的双重作用（dual-action）协同高效清除金黄色葡萄球菌（S. aureus）生物膜（biofilm ...

A robot doesn't have to big, powerful and terrifying to be worthwhile, and many people are working on miniature machines that are just as cool. Some of these endeavors show promise in medicine, but ...

Various groups are currently working on tiny "robots" that could deliver medication to specific locations within the body. One of the latest such microbots, known as the MANiAC, is designed ...

Microscopic robots have been created by researchers at North Carolina State University and Duke University. By converting magnetic energy from their environment into movement, the devices can capture ...

“All-Terrain Microbots” sounds like it should be the name of a 1980s cartoon, accompanied by its own toy line and sugary breakfast cereal. In fact, it’s a description of the tiny microscale magnetic ...

Robotics researchers often turn to the Japanese paper folding art of origami for inspiration, and with some very impressive results. Scientists working in the field at the University of Michigan have ...

In the fast-paced world of medical innovation, the development of programmable microbots is emerging as a revolutionary force, offering groundbreaking ...

The beauty of evolution is that it’s so nonjudgmental. What began as the first organism billions of years ago has diversified into species that fly and hop and run, whatever best suits them in their ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Researchers are using a technology likened to "mini force fields" to independently control individual microrobots operating within groups, an advance aimed at using the tiny ...
