Wave-momentum shaping for moving objects in heterogeneous and dynamic media.

ABSTRACT: Light and sound waves can move objects through the transfer of linear or angular momentum, which has led to the development of optical and acoustic tweezers, with applications ranging from biomedical engineering to quantum optics. Although impressive manipulation results have been achieved, the stringent requirement for a highly controlled, low-reverberant and static environment still hinders the applicability of these techniques in many scenarios. Here we overcome this challenge and demonstrate the manipulation of objects in disordered and dynamic media by optimally tailoring the momentum of sound waves iteratively in the far field. The method does not require information about the object's physical properties or the spatial structure of the surrounding medium but relies only on a real-ti
