Các robot vi mô đầu tiên có thể *nhận biết, xử lý, hành động và tính toán* ngay trên thân bằng hệ thống cảm biến, bộ nhớ, và điều khiển tự động. Với kích thước nhỏ như sinh vật đơn bào, chúng được chế tạo hàng loạt nhờ công nghệ in khắc nano, có thể điều chỉnh hành vi theo môi trường và làm việc nhóm trong điều kiện không chắc chắn. Thành tựu này mở đường cho ứng dụng robot vi mô linh hoạt trong y học/robotics.

Cornell's smallest walking robot makes microscale measurements. What applications do you see for micro-robotics?

Cornell researchers in physics and engineering have created the smallest walking robot yet. Its mission: to be tiny enough to interact with waves of visible light and still move independently, so that it can maneuver, and take images and measurements.
Prof. Dr. Karin Leistner from Chemnitz University of Technology will develop materials for electrochemically switchable micromagnets with outstanding energy efficiency for later use in medical technology, microscopy, and microrobotics, for which she will receive two million euros
PCB Stepper Motor Micro Robots
[Kevin Lynagh] is interested in tiny PCB stepper motors, and after reviewing the various projects and patents to-date, decided to give it a try himself. These are basically a stepper motor that's been unrolled and made flat -- traces on the PCB act as the coils and tiny magnetic "robots" act as the rotor.
If you want to try this concept yourself, [Kevin]'s post contains an excellent survey of prior art and projects, as well as exploring the theory behind how these things work. He has taken a deep dive in to the theory, deep enough to grasp what's going on and to build some preliminary prototypes with a bit of confidence. First off was just a hand-wound flat coil as a proof-of-concept. Next was a PCB version that worked almost exactly as planned, although he confesses to burning out a motor driver circuit before stepping back and making some calculations.
We covered one such project back in 2014 and wrote about a Hackaday.io magnetic robot project from reader [bobricius] in 2018. Have you ever used this technology for anything besides a demonstration? Let us know in the comments below.
Thanks to [Adrian] for sending us the tip.
