Magnetic field is a favorable power source for actuation and control of micro-/nanorobots. To overcome the fast decay of magnetic field for large-workspace microrobotic actuation, mobile field source-based systems have been proposed. In this work, we report a new mobile-coil system, i.e., QuadMag. It consists of four electromagnetic coils, whose motion is actuated by a parallel mechanism. Compared...
