Scientists from the German Cancer Research Center have developed TrainBots, miniature robots combined into a unit that can successfully perform surgical procedures, overcoming previous limitations.
The newly designed TrainBot units are equipped with improved anti-slip feet, allowing them to successfully transport heavy instruments in environments like the human body.
The collaboration of multiple millimeter-sized robots enables the performance of electric surgical procedures, showcasing the potential of robotic convoys in medical applications.
By using a rotating magnetic field for control, the TrainBot units navigate effectively, surmounting obstacles presented by mucus-covered surfaces typically found in the human body.
