Overview

Welcome to the course on Microrobotics!

Microrobotics refer to robots of milimeter or micrometer scale. These robots function mostly in fluidic environment, concerning a great range of disciplines including engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, living sicence, etc. They are playing an important role on a wide range of interdisciplinary applications, e.g., remote drug delivery, minimal invasive surgery, human health monitoring, plant science investigations, and so much more. With the advancement of technologies, we are excited to come to an era in which we believe microrobotics could accomplish great work that are unimaginable before.

In this course, we will introduce you the basic concept of microrobotics and their applications. You will learn what a microrobot is, how it functions, and in which way you could build and control a microrobot. You will also learn the state-of-the-art research topics and applications of microrobots and challenges in building them. We hope you could learn a lot in this course, and become interested in this field. Look forward to seeing you!
