Miniaturization of Implantable Micro-Robot Propulsion Using a Wireless Power Transfer System

This paper presents an efficient coil design for a mm-sized micro-robot which generates a propulsion force and torque and receives electrical energy using a wireless power transfer system. To determine the most efficient coil structures and produce propulsion and torque on the micro-robot, both heli...
