Most of conventional micro manipulators do not have multi purpose functions, sophisticated motions and powers as human being's hands do, and can do only simple works; stabbing, injection and pipette insertion and translation. The purpose of this study is to develop and to assemble a chopstick-type micro hand with much higher workability and compatibility toa conventional manipulator system applying a commertial video game controller pad which has multi-input gate for the micro manipulators. Our chopstick-type micro manipulator is designed referring to the actions of chopstick. When we use the chopstick, a piece of the chopstick at the side of forefinger moves mainly to manipulate an object. But a piece of chopstick at the side of thumb hardly moves at all and only supports an object. Our new chopstick-type micro manipulator can catch a erlass dummy cell (φ50μm) by two glass needle and top of the single finger micro manipulator can reach exactly to the center of dummy cells.
