چکیده
This paper reports preliminary experiments in the development of our Augmented Micromanipulation System using the JHU “Steady Hand” cooperative robot system to augment single cell manipulation tasks. The need for robotic augmentation of biomanipulatuon tasks is discussed. The JHU "Steady-Hand" robot configuration for cell manipulation is reported. Augmentation strategies for stable cooperative insertion of a micropipette in a mouse embryo are developed and preliminary experiments validating these strategies are presented. These preliminary experiments demonstrate promise of cooperative augmentation in single cell manipulation tasks.

متن کاملSteady-Hand Teleoperation with Virtual Fixtures
We present a method for implementing “steadyhand control” on teleoperators where the master device is of the impedance type. Typical steady-hand systems are admittance controlled cooperative robots that can implement very high damping. Such systems are ideal for implementing guidance virtual fixtures, which are constraints in software that assist a user in moving a tool along preferred paths. O...
