Design and prototype clockwork mechanism to actuate droplets along an arbitrary path

This project aimed to design a clockwork escapement mechanism to operate and control the movement of the magnetic particles involved in magnetic digital microfluidic without the need of electrical energy. The regular periodic oscillation movement of the clockwork escapement mechanism transfer kineti...
