A Chiang Mai University team has developed a motor that will power a microscopic robot on an expedition through human blood vessels, looking for such things as tiny tumors in internal organs.
The piezoceramic device is remote controlled by low-voltage electric current or microwaves, and is propelled by changing its size.
