Abstract: 
Controlling artificial devices that mimic the motion of real microorganisms is attracting increasing interest, both from the mathematical point of view and applications. A model for a magnetically driven micro-swimmer is presented,  supported by a feasibility study for its realization. Using the well known Resistive Force Theory (RFT) approach the micro-swimmer can be described by a driftless affine control system where the control is an external magnetic field. Moreover we discuss how to realize different kind of paths.
