In this work the design of a biomimetic gecko adhesion array for future microrobots is described. First, models for understanding the array design are issued, and based on moment equilibrium the theory of actuation mechanism of the array is discussed in detail. Then the design parameters such as length, diameter, separation distance, and density of array are determined for non-matting. Finally, the fabrication technique is proposed
