The University of Alberta Nanorobotics Team uses magnetic ferrofluid droplets as robots that can be manipulated in microfabricated arenas. The robots consist of iron oxide nanoparticles suspended in water that allow the droplet to be pulled by electromagnetic fields toward areas of higher magnetic field strength. The droplets are created using a nanoinjector to inject 75-100 nL of ferrofluid into silicone oil, producing droplets around 500 micrometers in diameter. The team microfabricates silicon wafer arenas using photolithography techniques and controls the robots' movement using computer vision and electromagnets powered by a MatLab program.
