Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners do not provide only high-resolution medical imaging but also magnetic robot actuation and tracking. However, the rotational motion capabilities of MRI-powered wireless magnetic capsule-type robots have been l...
This paper presents a temperature compensation method based on the genetic algorithm (GA) and backpropagation (BP) neural network to reduce the temperature induced error of the spin-exchange relaxation-free (SERF) co-magnetometer. The fluctuation of ...
To achieve cancer screening in any appointed position in 3D regions of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract such as esophagus, stomach and colon, a highly integrated dual hemisphere capsule robot (DHCR) with a novel three-layer nested structure is propose...
Recently, indoor localization has become an active area of research. Although there are various approaches to indoor localization, methods that utilize artificially generated magnetic fields from a target device are considered to be the best in terms...
Droplet manipulation is crucial for diverse applications ranging from bioassay to medical diagnosis. Current magnetic-field-driven manipulation strategies are mainly based on fixed or partially tunable structures, which limits their flexibility and v...
