Abstract

Remote magnetic control of soft magnetic objects has been limited to 2D orientation and 3D position. In this letter, we extend the five degree-of-freedom (5-DoF) control approach to full 6-DoF. We prove that 6-DoF control is possible for objects that have an apparent magnetic susceptibility tensor with unique eigenvalues. We further show that the object’s orientation can be specified with a dynamic magnetic field and can be controlled without orientation feedback.The theory is demonstrated by rotating a soft magnetic object about each of its principle axes using a metronome like dynamic field.
