Researchers develop magnetic ferropaper for microbots and mini speakers

Posted By: Bharat BhushanSharma | Jan 6 2010

When every manufacturer is headed to reveal its credentials at the CES 2010, modest researchers at the Purdue University are busy developing magnetic ferropaper, out of impregnating ordinary paper, which could form basis for miniature stereo speakers, micromotors and smaller robots to be featured at the future CES events. Origami style experiments on the inexpensive ferropaper, made from a mixture of normal paper, mineral oil and magnetic particles of iron oxide, which can be easily moved in a magnetic field, have shown the strength, stiffness and elasticity properties of it, which the developers could someday be able to use for their motives.
