Potential field mechanisms and distributed learning for enhancing the navigation of micro/nanorobot in biomedical environments

Abstract

In complex systems, single micro/nanorobots encounter challenges related to limited loading capacity and navigation, hindering their effective utilization in targeted therapy and drug delivery. To solve these challenges, this paper explores potential field mechanisms as a means to simulate natural collective behavior. This approach aims to enhance the navigation and efficiency of micro/nanorobots in high-demand therapeutic areas. The mechanism enables micro/nanorobots to dynamically adapt to environmental gradients, minimizing off-target effects while maximizing therapeutic efficacy and enhancing robustness through redundancy. Additionally, this study introduces innovative distributed learning and cooperative control strategies. Each micro/nanorobot updates its navigation strategy through local interactions and influences with the dynamic environment. This allows micro/nanorobots to share information and improve their navigation toward therapeutic targets. The simulation results demonstrate that collective behavior and potential field mechanisms can enhance the precision and efficiency of targeted therapy and drug delivery in dynamically changing environments. In conclusion, the proposed approach can improve the limitations of single micro/nanobot, offering new possibilities for the development of advanced therapeutics and drug delivery systems.
