| * The offering term is subject to change without prior notice | ||||||||
Course Aims | ||||||||
Micro and nano robotics is an interdisciplinary field which involves microfabrication, robotics, medicine and materials science. This course will cover the basic principles in design, modelling, fabrication, and control of miniature robot and micro/nano-manipulation systems. In addition to basic background material, the course includes case studies of current micro/nano-systems, challenges and future trends, and potential applications. The course will focus on a team design project involving novel theoretical and/or experimental concepts for micro/nano-robotic systems with a team of students. Depending on the nature of the topic chosen, these projects can also involve review of literature, design of new micro/nano robots, simulation or experimental demonstrations. | ||||||||
