3-D Printed Swimming Microtori for Cargo Transport and Flow Manipulation
3-D Printed Swimming Microtori for Cargo Transport and Flow Manipulation
Through billions of years of evolution, microorganisms mastered unique swimming behaviors to thrive in complex fluid environments. Limitations in nanofabrication have thus far hindered the ability to design and program synthetic swimmers with the same abilities. Here we encode multi-behavioral responses in artificial swimmers such as microscopic, self-propelled tori using …
