About this book

With this book, we present the reader with a mosaic of topics that cover multiple aspects of microbiorobotics research. The chapters in this book are independently written by the authors. Together, they cover theoretical, biological, and synthetic microrobotics.

Theoretical microbiorobotics

In theoretical microbiorobotics, we explore the swarm control and optimization. One of the challenges in deploying microrobots is direct control of a large number of actuators at the cellular level. In relation to that, several chapters in this book are devoted to control at the “colony” level. Chapter 1 by Becker addresses the control of swarms of robots at the microscale using global inputs for breaking symmetry. Chapter 2 by Amokrane, ...
