MicroPush: A Simulator and Benchmark for Contact-Rich Cell Pushing and Assembly with a Magnetic Rolling Microrobot
Description
Magnetic rolling microrobots enable gentle manipulation in confined microfluidic environments, yet autonomy for contact-rich behaviors such as cell pushing and multi-target assembly remains difficult to develop and evaluate reproducibly. We present MicroPush, an open-source simulator and benchmark suite for magnetic rolling microrobots in cluttered 2D scenes. MicroPush combines an overdamped interaction model with contact-aware stick--slip effects, lightweight near-field damping, optional Poiseu
