Computer Controlled Piezo Micromanipulation System for Biomedical Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, the development of a computer controlled piezo manipulation system for biomedical applications such as intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is presented. The hardware setup and the control strategies will be described in full details to illustrate the advantages of this approach as compared to other manual-based injection methods.

Modelling Procedure and Development of Piezo Actuated Mechatronic Systems
The rapid growth in the last few years of high technologies such as micromanipulation, nanotechnology, scanning tunnelling and atomic force microscopy, etc. [5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 17, 18] has lead to the need of fast and appropriate modelling of components and systems for these technologies. Such systems are mostly piezo actuated and we shall further call them Piezo Actuated Mechatronic Systems (PAM...
متن کاملDevelopment of an optical tweezer combined with micromanipulation for DNA and protein nanobioscience
We have constructed an optical tweezer using two lasers (830 nm and 1064 nm) combined with micropipette manipulation having sub-pN force sensitivity. Sample position is controlled within nanometer accuracy using XYZ piezo-electric stage. The position of the bead in the trap is monitored using single particle laser backscattering technique. The instrument is automated to operate in constant forc...
متن کاملDevelopment of a piezo-actuated micro-teleoperation system for cell manipulation.
BACKGROUND Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) requires long training and has low success rates, primarily due to poor control over the injection force. Making force feedback available to the operator will improve the success rate of the injection task. A macro-micro-teleoperation system bridges the gap between the task performed at the micro-level and the macroscopic movements of the opera...

At the University of Karlsruhe, a flexible micromanipulation station based on high-precise piezo-driven microrobots has been developed. Providing a flexible tool in several application fields in the micro world the robots operate either on the stage of an automated light optical microscope or inside the vacuum chamber of a scanning electron microscope (SEM). In order to automate manipulating ta...
