Microrobotic Platform for Single Motile Microorganism Investigation
We propose a microrobotic platform for single motile microorganism observation and investigation. The platform utilizes a high-speed online vision sensor to realize real-time observation of a microorganism under a microscopic environment with a relatively high magnification ratio. A microfluidic chip was used to limit the vertical movement of the microorganism and reduce the tracking system com...
متن کاملTrajectory Planning of Motile Cell for Microrobotic Applications
Our goal is to use motile microorganisms as smart microscale robots for a variety of applications. As a first step, we have achieved microrobotic control of Paramecium cell movement using galvanotaxis (locomotor response to electrical stimulus). Previous studies based on simple empirical rules that did not consider cell dynamics had only limited control. To control cells more precisely as micro...
متن کاملDigital microrobotic
Microrobotics deals with the design, fabrication and control of microrobots to perform tasks in the microworld (i.e. the world of submillimetric objects). While end-effectors experienced considerable developments, few works concerned the development of microrobot architectures adapted to the microworld. Most of the actual robots are bulky and based on the miniaturization of traditional architec...
متن کاملIntracellular pH in single motile cells
Cytoplasmic pH in single living specimens of Chaos carolinensis is determined microfluorometrically by measuring the ratio of fluorescence intensity of microinjected fluorescein-thiocarbamyl (FTC)-ovalbumin at two different excitation wavelengths. The probe is evenly distributed throughout, and confined to, the cytoplasm, and the fluorescence intensity ratio depends only upon pH. It is independ...
متن کاملMicrorobotic activities in Finland
This paper reviews the activities in the field of microrobotics of two closely co-operating microsystem groups in Finland. Topics covered include mechanical and biological micromanipulators, microactuator modeling, modeling of handling tasks and prototyping gastrointestinal biotelemetering device.
