Optoelectronic tweezer-driven microrobots (OETdMs) are a versatile micromanipulation technology based on the application of light induced dielectrophoresis to move small dielectric structures (microrobots) across a photoconductive substrate. The microrobots in turn can be used to exert forces on secondary objects and carry out a wide range of micromanipulation operations, including collecting, tra...
