Calibration for contact type of micro-manipulation

Proceedings 1999 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems. Human and Environment Friendly Robots with High Intelligence and Emotional Quotients (Cat. No.99CH36289), 2003
In the biotechnology field, it is very difficult to manipulate microscopic material through human handling. There is a great need for a new experiment system that is easy to operate. We show a 3D calibration technique for improving positional errors of a glass pipette tip, furnished on a micro-manipulator.

An Overview of the Micro-Manipulation System [mu] MAD

Proceedings, 2005 IEEE/ASME International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics., 2005
The micro-manipulation system developed in Lab- oratoire de Robotique de Paris (LRP) is described in this paper. This system, called (m ¨ u)MAD, is based on the use of adhesion forces and inertial effects for handling of objects which range from 1 to 100 µm.

Micro-manipulation using rotational fluid flows induced by remote magnetic micro-manipulators

Journal of Applied Physics, 2012
We present a non-contact manipulation method for micron scale objects using locally induced rotational fluid flows created by groups of untethered magnetic micro-manipulators. The magnetic micro-manipulators are rotated in a viscous fluid by an externally generated magnetic field to create rotational flows, which act to move micro-objects in the flow ...

Study of an intelligent micro-manipulator

Journal of Materials Processing Technology, 2003
Abstract An intelligent micro-manipulator based on 3-PRS in-parallel mechanism was developed for the purpose of assembling micro-machines, operating biological cells, and performing micro-surgery. The micro-manipulator consists of a left finger and a right finger driven separately by three driving units. With such construction it can mimic the motion

3D manipulation of 2D materials using micro-dome polymer.

Nano letters (Print), 2020
We demonstrate 3D mechanical manipulations, such as sliding, rotating, folding, flipping, and exfoliating, of 2D materials using a micro-dome polymer (MDP) via in-situ real-time observation with an optical microscope.
