In this review paper, concepts in optofluidics are applied to an advanced manufacturing technology based on self-assembled microparts. The "optical" aspect of optofluidics will be described in the context of photolithography, and the "fluidic" aspect will be discussed in the context of self-assembly. First, optofluidic maskless lithography will be introduced as a dynamic fabrication method to generate microparticles in microfluidic channels. Next, the history and application of optofluidic lithography will be presented.
