Figure 5

Exhibits a parabolic drag force characteristic depending on the velocity of micro-UFO. The drag force change is less for the [−2, 2] mm/s range, which is the microrobot motion speed. For this reason, the system can be expressed by linear equation, by performing curve fitting at the specified interval. For the equation proposed as Fd=kVr, a constant coefficient was found to be k=7.075×109 kg/s2. Due to the symmetric structure of the microrobot, the force calculation is preferably shown only for x-axis.
