Mobile microrobots are envisioned to be employed for several applications including drug delivery, diagnostic imaging and environmental monitoring. In the bio-hybrid microrobot that is presented here, microparticles are used as the body of the microrobot and bacterial cells are utilized to realize on-board actuation. In this work, the importance of body shape on the dynamics of bacteria-propelled...
Swimming microrobots are envisioned to impact minimally invasive diagnosis, localized treatment of diseases, and environmental monitoring. Dynamics of micro-scale swimming robots falls in the realm of low Reynolds number, where viscous forces exerted on the robots are dominant over inertia. Viscous forces developed at the interface of the swimming microrobots and the surrounding fluid are a strong...
