摘要：
单个机器人在驱动方面的复杂性、成本和功耗需求，可能成为限制机器人群体规模的重要因素。本文提出 PCBot，这是一款极简机器人，能够借助直接内置在其 PCB 中的双稳态螺线管致动器，在轨道振动台上精确移动。这使得该致动器可以作为自动化 PCB 制造过程的一部分进行生产，从而大幅降低其对手工装配的影响。得益于这种新颖的致动器设计，PCBot 仅有五个主要部件，并且可在 20 秒内完成装配，有望实现轻松的大规模制造。本文介绍 PCBot 的电磁与机械设计。此外，本文使用一台原型机器人演示其直线移动以及沿给定路径行进的能力。
英文摘要：
Complexity, cost, and power requirements for the actuation of individual robots can play a large factor in limiting the size of robotic swarms. Here we present PCBot, a minimalist robot that can precisely move on an orbital shake table using a bi-stable solenoid actuator built directly into its PCB. This allows the actuator to be built as part of the automated PCB manufacturing process, greatly reducing the impact it has on manual assembly. Thanks to this novel actuator design, PCBot has merely five major components and can be assembled in under 20 seconds, potentially enabling them to be easily mass-manufactured. Here we present the electro-magnetic and mechanical design of PCBot. Additionally, a prototype robot is used to demonstrate its ability to move in a straight line as well as follow given paths.
