Parallel manipulation of multiple magnetic soft robots has been challenged since necessary of real-time control of complicate three-axial coordination of electromagnetic field impedes actuation of the multiple soft robots individually. Recently, we demonstrated facile orbital magnetomotility of multiple soft robots in response to rotating permanent magnets underneath a substrate, capable of collective behavior of soft robots. Upon varying the rotational frequency of the magnets, rotation and resultant hierarchical revolution facilitate on-demand control of orbital radius, velocity, and pathway of multiple soft robots. The soft robots are consisted of nanocomposites of thermoplastic polyurethane matrix and iron oxide nanoparticles. In this presentation, we will discuss the effects of concentration and dispersion of nanoparticles on the polymer nanocomposite robots in the perspective of structure-property-performance relationships.
