By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Current study results on robotics have been published. According to news reporting from Sejong, South Korea, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Achieving selective-individual and collective co ntrol over multiple magnetic microrobots remains a formidable challenge." Funders for this research include National Research Foundation of Korea. Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Korea University: "Exis ting techniques for controlling identical magnetic swimmers are often limited to two-dimensional, small working spaces, while heterogeneous swimmers can only be controlled in small numbers without the option for collective control. In this study, we present a purely magnetic control methodology for the selective-scalab le locomotion of helical magnetic swimmers within confined channels. By employin g a unique gradient field distribution, referred to as the "selection field," al ong with space-uniform rotating fields, we establish a "selection volume" that a llows swimmers within it to fully rotate, while those outside remain stationary. We explore various conditions of the selection volume to analyze the locomotion dynamics of the swimmers in relation to the position of the selection volume. E xperimental results demonstrate the selective-scalable locomotion of identical r obots, ranging from one to an arbitrary number (N) of robots, as well as their s electiveindividual manipulation for multitasking applications. Furthermore, com patibility of the proposed method with different magnetic torque-driven robots i s exemplified through the selective control of rolling robots." According to the news editors, the research concluded: "Moreover, three-dimensio nal selective-scalable control is also demonstrated for four swimmers in a quasi -three-dimensional channel, as well as for two swimmers within a true three-dime nsional channel."
