Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research has been to develop a combined sense system that uses both force feedback and visual feedback to find out the microscopic features of a microsample. It is thought that the efficiency of minute procedures would be improved if the operator were able to have a sense of force while using a manipulator. A haptic device, the force and the visual senses system on microscopic features are structured to give a sense of that force to a user, who can feel the force as if he/ she touched the sample with a cantilever. This study described the developed haptic device in our combined sense system was developed so that the user can feel a force as if he/ she had touched the microsample.
