An electromagnetic driving system manipulates a micro-robot within the patient’s posterior eye. Credit: Scientists from the School of Mechanical Engineering, Tianjin University. A research team has presented a novel electromagnetic driving system that consists of eight optimized electromagnets arranged in an optimal configuration and employs a control framework based on an active disturbance rejection controller (ADRC) and virtual boundary. Electromagnetic driving systems were proposed for the flexible 5-DOF magnetic manipulation of a micro-robot within the posterior eye, enabling precise targeted drug delivery. The team published their findings in Cyborg and Read More
