This micromotor has been developed within the frame-work of the H2020 UWIPOM2 project funded by the European Union. Power consumption is compatible with a wireless energy harvesting system developed also within the framework of the H2020 UWIPOM2 project [25], [26]. Its ultrathin diameter and its high torque density permits to foresee its use in minimally invasive microcatheter tools or implantable devices with less damage during insertion processes.
