Self-propelled microrobot with microfluidics

Self-propulsion robot powered by a microfluidic pump

The modularity of microfluidics enables microfabricated microfluidic chips to be either used as standalone systems or integrated as subsystems into more complex systems. In this week's research highlight, we will introduce one of these advanced technologies that employs a microfluidic pump for Marangoni propulsion in...
