Wireless magnetic manipulation has absorbed a considerable amount of researchers’ attention due to its various application in different areas including the Micro-Opto-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MOEMS), the MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS), and the Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS). The designed magnetic device provides a remote control on a magnetic tool, micro-robot, inside the magnetic field over five-degree-of-freedom (5-DOF), three translations and two orientations. Since micro robots are designed in a tiny size, they can provide access to the small cells and increase the pace of the process. The main idea of this device is to provide a safer and less aggressive surgical environment in order to increase the performing tasks and decrease the required recovery time.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Indigenous Initiatives Office.
