====== Welcome to the Pister group wiki! ====== We're figuring out how to build microrobots and related technology. ---- ===== About this Site ===== This wiki is where our research group shares: * **research project information** //(SCμM and Zappy pinouts and basic usage)// * **explanations of theoretical models** //(how an inchworm motor works)// * **fabrication process information** //(design rules and NanoLab process data)// * **user manuals for tools** //(wirebonder, CAD software)// * **introductory material** //(for new group members)// (But we set up this wiki very recently. So far, it really only contains some of our NanoLab tool process notes; we need to copy the rest of the data over. Help is welcome!) However, this wiki can only fit a high-level overview of our research. We also: * store software on [[https://github.com/PisterLab|GitHub]] * store large data, images, videos, and presentations on [[https://bconnected.berkeley.edu/collaboration-services/box|Box]] * store CAD files on [[https://bconnected.berkeley.edu/collaboration-services/box|Box]] * put videos on [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfC6OEA7QQi5fvu46PVxc4A|YouTube]] * have a [[https://bamlab.berkeley.edu|fancy WordPress website]] * write research papers on [[https://www.overleaf.com/|Overleaf]] * occasionally use Google Drive ===== Where to Start ===== Use the sidebar on the left to jump to common pages in the wiki.
