제목 Remote control of helical soft robots via external mangetic field
초록 Magnetically active helical soft robots are advantageous to achieve untethered system that can avoid restricted motility originating from wire connections. We synthesized magnetically active polymeric composites by addition of iron particles in elastomeric polymer, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Particles are randomly distributed in the matrix and the composites were shaped into a helical geometry that can introduce rolling friction for motility of the soft robot. Magnitude of external magnetic field for remote control is manipulated by a uniaxial moving stage for a permanent magnet. The composite coil demonstrated intermittent motility since the rolling motion occurs only when the angular momentum of the helix exceeds rolling friction. To better understand and optimize magnetomotility of soft robots, various parameters are investigated including magnitude of magnetic field and velocity of magnet movement which will be discussed in this presentation.
