| Research Abstract |
In this research, we developed multi DOF stiffness measurement system for a cell using two-fingered microhand. In this system, micro force sensors are attached to each finger on two-fingered microhand. By using this system, multi DOF measurement for a cell could be realized. Moreover, this scheme also realized automated stable cell manipulation. Sensor information from each sensor can be used to obtain grasping position for a target cell. Through these research results, high speed cell manipulation and stiffness measurement compared with previous research have been realize. Additionally, new end-effector of two-fingered microhand, which has micro force sensor on it, was considered. And, we confirm the manufacturing procedure for the end effector. Based on this evaluation, the possibility of end effectors with multi DOF micro force sensor is also confirmed.
