From a cellphone I think. I found one about this size in a broken CD player recently.
Bristlebot Inchworm with Biometal
This metal was all the rage back in the 70s – I can remember reading magazines filled with pictures of Luke Skywalker… raving about this new wonder-metal that could remember its shape. 20-30 years later… inchbot. Still, it’s a good inchbot.
I love the comments on this one:
ROFLMAO sexy time!!
nice bot, how do u make their “brain”?

a proper microbot
“A gold/nickel microrobot of 300x300x70 micrometer (10^-6 m) dashing through a maze of photoresist walls.
The robot is controlled by visual servoing, i.e. the user clicks a spot and the computer steers it there.
The robot and required system was built by a team of researches at ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) and won the RoboCup in the Nanogram League 2007.
