Micro-teleoperation with parallel manipulator

This paper describes the haptic interface based micromanipulation systems developed for microrobot fabrication, micro-process handling and micro-component inspection. It is based on scaled bilateral teleoperation system between different structures. These systems are composed of an original 6-DOF parallel link manipulator to carry out micromanipulation and a haptic interface with force feedback. These systems aim to make the micromanipulation more productive in constructing a better human interface through the micro environment force and scale expansion. In this paper, a new micromanipulation system is proposed and evaluated. Experiments were conducted to evaluate the precision and manipulability of the systems.
