 A review of micropumps

A pump using three piezo transducers in a peristaltic firing order. Transducers are driven by three square waves, 60 degrees out of phase. Square wave is +35V -35V (70Vpp) and draws 3mA.

Tiny robotic hand has the gentlest touch

Tiny robotic hand has the gentlest touch

A tiny pair of robotic tweezers with the most sensitive grip yet can pick up and move individual cells without damaging them, guided by their own sense of touch. They could be used to probe the properties of living tissue, or create microscale and nanoscale devices.
