The present letter investigates a novel control approach for magnetically driven soft-tethered
capsules for colonoscopy—a potentially painless approach for colon inspection. The focus …

Existing remotely actuated magnetic microrobots exhibit a maximum of only five-degree-of-
freedom (DOF) actuation, as creation of a driving torque about the microrobot magnetization …

This paper presents a novel design of six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) magnetically levitated
(maglev) positioner, where its translator and stator are implemented by four groups of 1-D …

This paper presents a magnetically levitated parallel actuated dual-stage (maglev-PAD)
motion system for six-axis precision positioning. This dual-stage motion system consists of a …

This paper presents a new magnetic levitation system, MagTable, which provides six-
degrees-of-freedom (6-DOF) and completely contactless operation of a magnetized object …

Magnetic levitation actuators (MLAs) are employed in flexible manufacturing, precision
positioning and machining, and haptic devices due to untethered motions. However, the …

Magnetic levitation motors are broadly employed for haptic devices and precision
manufacturing. The motor developed in this study comprises a disc-magnet mover and …

As precise motion-controlled applications of mobile untethered devices emerge into real-
world scenarios, full manipulator dexterity will be required. In rigid bodies without joints, one …

Magnetic levitation technology has promising applications in modern manufacturing,
especially for fine-motion stage and long-range omnidirectional planar motors. This paper …

A novel non-contact carrying and transportation technology is proposed based on near-field
acoustic levitation (NFAL) and negative pressure adsorption effect. The disk-shaped objects …
