Scientists at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities have identified a novel way to move items using ultrasound waves. The study paves the way for contactless manipulation in fields such as manufacturing and robotics, where devices would not require a built-in power source to move.
A study published last month by University of Minnesota mechanical engineering researchers has the potential to make waves – ultrasonic waves, to be exact – in fields like surgery and manufacturing.
University of Minnesota Twin Cities researchers have discovered a new method to move objects using ultrasound waves. The research opens the door for using contactless manipulation in industries such as manufacturing and robotics, where devices wouldn't need a built-in power source in order to move.
