Surface-enabled propulsion and control of colloidal microwheels

Most artificial microdevices include biomimetic features, but existing systems do not yet match living microorganisms in speed and direction control. Here, Tasci et al. use a rotating magnetic field to reversibly assemble colloidal particles into wheels that translate at velocities approaching 100 μ...
