These micro-robots are half a millimeter wide but they can push around objects four times their own weight. To create the plucky bots, tiny magnetic particles were suspended between two layers of fluid that don't mix. When an alternating magnetic field was applied perpendicular to the boundary of the liquids, he found that the particles self-assembled to create tiny, worm-like robots. They could be moved around by applying a second, smaller magnetic field parallel to the plane.
