Haptic Feedback of Piconewton Interactions with Optical Tweezers
Haptic feedback for micro- and nanomanipulation is a research area of growing importance with many potential applications in micro- and biotechnology. Past research often involves the coupling of atomic force microscopes to haptic devices, but the results are not satisfactory. We propose to adopt a different approach, which consists of contactless manipulation, in particular by using optical tweezers, coupled with a haptic feedback device. In this article, we describe the potential of such a tool and show with some first experiments of stable interactions between micro-particles.
