We developed a droplet microfluidics approach that achieves versatile droplet manipulation in various extreme scenarios associated with superhydrophilic surfaces, and applied it to an in vivo clinical setting for the rapid and safe removal of thrombus as well as drug delivery.
The system has large workspace, reaching 50 × 50 mm square, making it readily usable for standard in-petri dish applications to carry up complicated analysis tasks in practice
The system has 2500 independent transducers, resulting in the excellence in generating high-fidelity acoustic fields
We propose an iterative unsupervised learning approach, integrating a physics-based ASM model and neural networks, to achieve precise real-time acoustic holography for contactless micro-nano robotic manipulation.

In this paper, an automated ultrasonic manipulation system is introduced for in-plane soft micro-fiber manipulation, which mainly consists of an ultrasonic transducer array and a microscope. A real-time trap generation algorithm is designed to manipulate the micro-fibers by the visual feedback from microscope.
