In this week's issue, Jager et al. report the development of what may be the world's tiniest robot yet: a microfabricated arm that can manipulate objects the width of a human hair. Science Online features five video clips of the microrobot arm in action--flexing its minuscule fingers, rotating at the "wrist," and grasping glass beads a mere 100 micrometers in diameter. www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/full/288/5475/2335
