Abstract:Magnetically levitated microrobotic systems have shown a great deal of promise for micromanipulation and biomedical applications. This paper discusses the identification of the vertical and horizontal motion models for a large-gap magnetic suspension system developed by the authors. The suspension system consists of six electromagnets attached to a soft iron pole piece, which levitate a small microrobot prototype manufactured from a 10 mm × 10 mm cylindrical neodymium magnet. A modified least squares algorithm… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
