Poster Prize

Jizhai Cui wins a best poster award at the MMM Conference in Las Vegas, November 2019

19.11.2019 by Aleksandra Pac

Article published on shape-morphing micromachines

birds

Researchers from the Laboratory for Mesoscopic Systems in D-MATL, the Multi-Scale Robotics Lab in D-MAVT and at the Paul Scherrer Institute have developed a micromachine incorporating arrays of nanomagnets that can perform different actions. First the magnetic configuration of the nanomagnets is programmed and then the various movements are controlled by magnetic fields.
