Efficient navigation and precise localization of Brownian micro/nano self-propelled motor particles within complex landscapes could enable future high-tech applications involving for example drug delivery, precision surgery, oil recovery, and environmental remediation. Here we employ a model-free deep reinforcement learning algorithm based on bio-inspired neural networks to enable different types of micro/nano motors to be continuously controlled to carry out complex navigation and localization tasks. Micro/nano motors with either tunable self-propelling speeds or orientations or both, are found to exhibit strikingly different dynamics. In particular, distinct control strategies are required to achieve effective navigation in free space and obstacle environments, as well as under time constraints. Our findings provide fundamental insights into active dynamics of Brownian particles controlled using artificial intelligence and could guide the design of motor and robot control systems with diverse application requirements.

Equipping active colloidal robots with intelligence such that they can efficiently navigate in unknown complex environments could dramatically impact their use in emerging applications like precision surgery and targeted drug delivery. Here we develo
p a model-free deep reinforcement learning that can train colloidal robots to learn effective navigation strategies in unknown environments with random obstacles. We show that trained robot agents learn to make navigation decisions regarding both obstacle avoidance and travel time minimization, based solely on local sensory inputs without prior knowledge of the global environment. Such agents with biologically inspired mechanisms can acquire competitive navigation capabilities in large-scale, complex environments containing obstacles of diverse shapes, sizes, and configurations. This study illustrates the potential of artificial intelligence in engineering active colloidal systems for future applications and constructing complex active systems with visual and learning capability.
Designing intelligent microrobots that can autonomously navigate and perform instructed routines in blood vessels, a complex and crowded environment with obstacles including dense cells, different flow patterns and diverse vascular geometries, can of
fer enormous possibilities in biomedical applications. Here we report a hierarchical control scheme that enables a microrobot to efficiently navigate and execute customizable routines in blood vessels. The control scheme consists of two highly decoupled components: a high-level controller setting short-ranged dynamic targets to guide the microrobot to follow a preset path and a low-level deep reinforcement learning (DRL) controller responsible for maneuvering microrobots towards these dynamic guiding targets. The proposed DRL controller utilizes three-dimensional (3D) convolutional neural networks and is capable of learning control policy directly from a coarse raw 3D sensory input. In blood vessels with rich configurations of red blood cells and vessel geometry, the control scheme enables efficient navigation and faithful execution of instructed routines. The control scheme is also robust to adversarial perturbations including blood flows. This study provides a proof-of-principle for designing data-driven control systems for autonomous navigation in vascular networks; it illustrates the great potential of artificial intelligence for broad biomedical applications such as target drug delivery, blood clots clear, precision surgery, disease diagnosis, and more.
Small objects can swim by generating around them fields or gradients which in turn induce fluid motion past their surface by phoretic surface effects. We quantify for arbitrary swimmer shapes and surface patterns, how efficient swimming requires both
surface ``activity to generate the fields, and surface ``phoretic mobility. We show in particular that (i) swimming requires symmetry breaking in either or both of the patterns of activity and ``mobility, and (ii) for a given geometrical shape and surface pattern, the swimming velocity is size-independent. In addition, for given available surface properties, our calculation framework provides a guide for optimizing the design of swimmers.
This paper proposes an end-to-end deep reinforcement learning approach for mobile robot navigation with dynamic obstacles avoidance. Using experience collected in a simulation environment, a convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained to predict pr
oper steering actions of a robot from its egocentric local occupancy maps, which accommodate various sensors and fusion algorithms. The trained neural network is then transferred and executed on a real-world mobile robot to guide its local path planning. The new approach is evaluated both qualitatively and quantitatively in simulation and real-world robot experiments. The results show that the map-based end-to-end navigation model is easy to be deployed to a robotic platform, robust to sensor noise and outperforms other existing DRL-based models in many indicators.
Mobile robot navigation has seen extensive research in the last decades. The aspect of collaboration with robots and humans sharing workspaces will become increasingly important in the future. Therefore, the next generation of mobile robots needs to
be socially-compliant to be accepted by their human collaborators. However, a formal definition of compliance is not straightforward. On the other hand, empowerment has been used by artificial agents to learn complicated and generalized actions and also has been shown to be a good model for biological behaviors. In this paper, we go beyond the approach of classical acf{RL} and provide our agent with intrinsic motivation using empowerment. In contrast to self-empowerment, a robot employing our approach strives for the empowerment of people in its environment, so they are not disturbed by the robots presence and motion. In our experiments, we show that our approach has a positive influence on humans, as it minimizes its distance to humans and thus decreases human travel time while moving efficiently towards its own goal. An interactive user-study shows that our method is considered more social than other state-of-the-art approaches by the participants.
