在本文中，我们报告了一个胶囊凝胶机器人，具有一种新的运动能力。该机器人是通过将化学反应系统包裹在凝胶膜中制成的，并通过移动重心来演示旋转运动。我们采用了包裹在胶囊中的油-水系统，其中油滴在水相中自主移动。本文介绍了一种利用海藻酸钠凝胶化技术制备球形中空凝胶的方法，以制备胶囊凝胶机器人的膜。制作的胶囊凝胶机器人在水中表现出旋转运动。
In this paper, we report a capsule gel robot that has a novel motion ability. The robot is produced by wrapping a chemical reaction system in a gel membrane and demonstrates a rotary motion by moving the center of gravity. We employed an oil-water system wrapped in a capsule where an oil droplet moves autonomously in water phase. We introduced an alginate gelation technique to make spherical hollow gels, in order to fabricate a membrane of capsule gel robot. The produced capsule gel robot showed a rotary motion in water.
