- *Abstract
-
An electro-osmotic pump was developed that uses individually-controlled oscillating water droplets to easily, carefully and quickly pick and place tiles in parallel. The invention uses the parallel-motion concept to increase efficiency, the self-assembly concept in that water droplets pick up tiles with no input other than a change in voltage, and the pick-and-place concept to individually choose tiles to move. The pump can be used with the Capillarity-based Switchable Adhesion Device (Cornell D-5010) for a variety of handling and pick-and-place applications.
Potential Applications:
Handling of small tiles, pick-and-place applications, e.g. in manufacturing
Advantages:
- High efficiency
- Ease of use
- Low energy requirements and complexity
