The functionality of robots can be enhanced by integrating multiple materials with different mechanical or magnetic characteristics. However, it remains challenging combining multiple materials along with arbitrary magnetization profile formation during fabrication. This study, from a pixel level, uses stereolithography process to precisely incorporate multiple materials with different physical properties for millimeter-scale robot printing, as well as encode discrete magnetizations for the actuating parts, which provides a customizable approach for sophisticated shape production. Complex shape transformations and dynamic motions were observed through the magnetic actuation of printed robots. With the integration of magnetoactive and non-magnetic materials, free locomotion in a liquid environment tracked by optical and ultrasonic detections was achieved by actuating a 4-arm flapping robot. Moreover, discrete patterns were formed with the combination of soft and rigid magnetic materials. Such versatility of robotic behaviors and enhanced morphing capabilities enable the creation of complex multi-material actuators and provide a promising route towards a wide spectrum of biomedical applications.","PeriodicalId":144730,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121754314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building systems which can facilitate both localised light illumination and visualisation of cells can however, be challenging and costly. This work takes the DOME, an existing platform for the closed-loop optical control of microscale agents, and adapts the design to support live-cell imaging. Through modifications made to the imaging and projection systems within the DOME, a significantly higher imaging resolution is achieved as well as the ability to customise the light projection wavelengths. Changes to the fundamental design allow for long-term use in an environment of higher temperature and humidity, facilitating the long-term imaging of live cells.","PeriodicalId":144730,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122171845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the rationale that 3DTIPs could complement or even substitute conventional silicon tips, we show that when compared, the 3DTIPs prove effective in obtaining high resolution, high speed AFM images in air and liquid using common AFM modes. In particular, we demonstrate that the 3DTIPs provide high resolution imaging due to their extremely low Hamaker constant, high speed scanning rates due to their low quality factor, and high durability due to their soft nature and minimal isotropic tip wear, the three important features for advancing the imaging with next generation AFM tips. We also show that, refining the tip end of the 3DTIPs by carbon nanotube inclusion substantially extends their functionality in high resolution AFM imaging, reaching angstrom scales. Altogether, multifunctional capabilities of 3DTIPs have potential to substitute conventional silicon tips for effectively performing various AFM applications.","PeriodicalId":144730,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129087184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Linder, Quan Zhou","doi":"10.1109/MARSS55884.2022.9870490","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/MARSS55884.2022.9870490","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper, we propose a robotic fiber fabrication method based on solidification force control to achieve highly repeatable mechanical properties of fibers. Dextran material is used as the specimen in the experiments. It has been chosen because of its similar rheological behavior to silk protein at high mass concentrations. However, the viscosity of dextran material is very low at its liquid phase, so force control during fabrication is challenging. Here, we propose a novel approach that controls the mechanical properties of fiber by controlling the solidification force. We employ impedance control with force tracking to control the solidification force to carry out the threading experiments and examine the benefits of the proposed approach. The repeatability of the mechanical properties of the fabricated fibers has been studied and compared using three scenarios a) fiber fabrication without solidification force control, abbreviated as FFNC, b) fiber fabrication with solidification force control after 60 seconds of solidification from the beginning of the solidification force detection abbreviated as FFWC, and c) fiber fabrication with solidification force control immediately after the detection of the solidification force, abbreviated as FFSC. The experimental results show that fibers fabricated using FFSC scenario have the highest repeatability based on the coefficient of variation of properties of the fabricated fibers, where the obtained coefficient of variation of the toughness, stiffness, elongation, and strength are 12.8%, 13.6%, 14.8%, 12.7% respectively. The experimental results also showed that fibers' mechanical properties toughness, stiffness, elongation, and strength have a negative correlation with the fabrication pulling velocity.","PeriodicalId":144730,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134561737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the poor stability limits their application in long-term measurement. Here, we report a high-stability crack sensor fabricated by depositing a 105 nm-thick Ag/Cr with micro-cracks onto a carbon nanotubes-polydimethylsiloxane (CNT-PDMS) layer. This novel brittle-tough bilayer crack sensor achieved high sensitivity (gauge factor: 108,241.7), a wide working range (0.01% - 44%), and high stability (stable period > 2,000,000 cycles under the strain caused by a monolayer of CMs).

This paper proposes agar gel as a reference cutting material for comparison between miniature robot surgical scissors of different designs. Trends in material properties (yield strength and fracture toughness) of agar were determined to correlate positively with its concentration by weight through experimentation. This indicates that agar tends to become more resistant to fracture nucleation and crack propagation with increasing agar concentration. Then, using novel magnetic robot surgical scissors, a cutting test showcased a positive correlation between agar cutting difficulty and its concentration. Thus, given increasing difficulty to cut with increasing agar concentration, agar gel could serve as a potential standard to compare miniature robot surgical scissors cutting capabilities.","PeriodicalId":144730,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125566197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The microrobot achieves locomotion on a Si substrate by selective coupling of laser energy between its two legs. The coupling mechanism is achieved by laser beam selective irradiation of the microrobot’s body to initiate the gait. Multi-Physics Models developed in our past work are difficult to use in formulating a microrobot controller. Therefore, in this paper, the microrobot model is simplified to differential drive kinematics that approximates the robot behavior, and the model was used to formulate a neural-network learning controller that can steer the robot to desired locations on the silicon substrate. Simulations predict the robot position regulation achieved by learning of the inverse robot Jacobian. Preliminary experimental results are also presented to confirm that this steering controller will also work in practice.","PeriodicalId":144730,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"132 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132869368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we explain the influence of bull sperm cell membrane potential on the formation of two types of IRONSperm samples that are produced by electrostatic self-assembly. The first is a proximal-coated soft body with nanoparticles concentrated on the head to maintain high flexibility of the flagellum and create a passively propagating transverse bending wave under the influence of an external rotating magnetic field. The second is a rigid-body with nanoparticles approximately uniformly distributed along the length to provide arbitrary geometry that maintains a constant chiral shape and propel by rotation about its long axis. We present a magneto-elastohydrodynamic model to predict the swimming speed at low Reynolds number for rigid IRONSperm with arbitrary shapes, and show that decreasing the bending stiffness allows the model to capture the behavior of its soft counterpart. While the response of a rigid chiral IRONSperm is distinguished by a greater swimming speed with a smooth decay with frequency, the benefit of a soft flagellum in certain scenarios would present a much smaller range of frequencies for wireless actuation.","PeriodicalId":144730,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Manipulation, Automation and Robotics at Small Scales (MARSS)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122057336","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
