3D Micromanipulation with haptic feedback
Challenge :
Extending human touch with a haptic interface to enable manual exploration and manipulation of micro and even nanostructures is one key goal for robotics on small scales . In this example , precise movement of 10 – 100 µ m large objects in 3D space , and a high degree of stability of the positioning setup is required . Furthermore , any external noise to the haptic device has to be below the feedback in the µ N-range of the sample .
attocube ´ s solution :
Benefits :
• smooth movement
• high accuracy positioning readout
• programmable functions through . vi and . dll attocube nanopositioners perform nanometer sized individual steps in three dimension . The small step size is suitable for macroscopic movement when performed at a high repetition rate . Meanwhile , each individual step is only a tiny disturbance to the microgripper of the sample due to the differences in size of three orders of magnitude .
