比萨圣安娜高等学校（sssa）依托意大利机器人与智能机器研究所项目（i-rim）招收博士生，导师为prof. arianna menciassi与prof. stefano palagi。 项目1：magnetic multi-robot system control 描述： robots are still often regarded as large machines with links, gears, and electric motors, autonomously interacting with the surrounding environment. despite the great research efforts in robotics and human-robot interaction (hri), the way we design, use, and control robots has not fundamentally changed in the past 20 years. we see in small-scale wireless multi-robot systems and cognitive hri a revolutionary answer to nowadays robots limitations. instead of large, tethered machines, that are difficult for the human user to control, we propose an innovative set of al-powered, modular, microsized swarms of robots. they are wirelessly steered by electromagnetic fields as well as able to react to other external stimuli, and then naturally controlled by humans through intuitive dexterous interfaces and interaction techniques. taking advantage of al multi-robot control strategies, these robots can team up and collaborate to fulfill complex tasks in a robust and unprecedented flexible way. the candidate will deal with the design of a magnetic multi-robot control strategy and with the design of a millimeter scale carrier able to release, control and stimulate a swarm of nanorobots responsible for task execution. the candidate will carry on this research project in the framework of a european project (rego - cognitive robotic tools for human-centered small-scale multi-robot operations - 101070066) with the possibility to collaborate and interact both with academic partners (university of twente, centre hospitalier universitaire de rennes) research centers (cnrs, italian institute of technology, helmholtz-zentrum dresden rossendorf) and companies (haption). 参考论文： • ciuti, g., valdastri, p., menciassi, a., & dario, p. {2010). robotic magnetic steering and locomotion of capsule endoscope for diagnostic and surgical endoluminal procedures. robotica, 28(2), 199-207. • lacovacci, v., ricotti, l., sinibaldi, e., signore, g., vistoli, f., & menciassi, a. {2018). an intravascular magnetic catheter enables the retrieval of nanoagents from the bloodstream. advanced science, 5(9), 1800807. 项目2：microrobots able to move through body tissues 描述： microrobots are microscopic, mobile, and untethered robotic devices envisioned to revolutionize minimally invasive medicine. they are expected to enable highly targeted and localized delivery of drugs, thus minimizing side effects, and non-invasive procedures. we envisage their use in delicate tissues and organs (e.g. brain) where reducing invasiveness, tissue damages and side effects is particularly important. whereas most current microrobots are rigid microstructures moved by external fields (e.g.: magnetic fields), we aim at developing microscale robots that can move inside soft body tissues. at this aim, the microrobots will have an ultra-deformable body (to squeeze through tissue gaps) and will be guided with novel control approaches and spontaneous responses to local conditions. to do so, inspiration will come from immune cells, and the microrobots will be endowed with the ability to move and change shape, locomote in complex 3d environments, harvest energy, perceive chemo-physical stimuli, and navigate (semi)autonomously in unknown environments. this research is funded by the european research council {celloids: cell-inspired particle-based intelligent microrobots, ga: 948590). 参考论文： palagi, s., & fischer, p.
