This tiny laser-powered robot can manipulate individual cells

Very small models of batteries already exist. For example, in 2022, researchers at the German University of Chemnitz presented an accumulator one micrometer long — the equivalent of a single isolated grain of dust. But it is still very difficult to integrate this kind of experimental device into a functional robot. And in any case, batteries generally do not mix well with living organisms.
