Talks and special session at IEEE MARSS 2024
Congratulations to Jiyuan and Felix for their successful talks at IEEE MARSS 2024, Delft, Netherlands.
Jiyuan presented "Yield stress fluid as ball joints for magnetic miniature robots".
Felix presented "Real-time tracking and control of mini-robots using magneto-oscillatory localization".
Tian and Prof. Hao Zeng, Tampere Univ, Finland co-organized a special session on "From soft materials to soft microrobots", a full-day workshop with 10 exciting talks.
Our paper published in ADVANCED ENGINEERING MATERIALS with our own designed cover
In the paper "A Miniaturized Device for Ultrafast On-Demand Drug Release Based on a Gigahertz Ultrasonic Resonator" we present a miniaturized device for wirelessly-controlled on-demand drug delivery. A solid-liquid interface oscillates at gigahertz frequency to generate acoustic streaming, which opens an elastic valve and emits the drug with an ultrafast response of 1 ms. The system shows great promise as a long-term controlled drug delivery implant for chronic diseases.
