Microbot locomotion is challenging because of the reversible nature of microscale fluid flow, a limitation that can be overcome by breaking flowfield symmetry with a nearby surface. We have used this strategy with rotating wheel-shaped microbots, μwheels, that roll on surfaces leading to enhanced propulsion and fast translation speeds. Despite this, studies to date on flat surfaces show that μwheels roll inefficiently with significant slip. Taking inspiration from the mathematics of roads and wheels, here we demonstrate that μwheel velocities can be significantly enhanced by changing microroad topography. In this, we observe that periodic bumps in the road can be used to enhance the traction between μwheels and nearby walls. While continuous μwheel rotation with slip is observed on flat surfaces, a combination of rotation with slip and non-slip flip occurs when μwheels roll upon surfaces with periodic features, resulting in up to four-fold enhancement in translation velocity. The surprisingly fast rolling speed of μwheels on bumpy roads can be attributed to the hydrodynamic coupling between μwheels and road surface features, allowing non-slip rotation of entire wheels along one of their stationary edges. This road/wheel coupling can also be used to enhance μwheel sorting and separation where the gravitational potential energy barrier induced by topographic surfaces can lead to motion in only one direction and to different rolling speeds between isomeric wheels, allowing one to separate them not based on size but on symmetry.
