Mechatronics Systems for Small Scale Robotics

Over the past decades, magnetic actuation gained popularity for medical intervention and treatments. Magnetic actuation systems initially were only equipped with optical monitoring. Later studies include integrated in-vivo capable modules like X-Ray, MRI and MPI. Despite these advancements, the global homogeneous actuation, small region of interest, low magnetic intensity are only a few of the open challenges for these devices. My main research objective is to develop practical electromagnetic systems for in vivo and in vitro (lab/body on chip) studies.
