The present invention relates to a manipulating device (A) for producing Sch&#xf6;nflies motions comprising a parallel array of at least two legs (B), each leg (B) including an actuator unit (C) having first and second ends and producing a pan-tilt motion, each leg (B) also including a passive unit (D) having first and second ends, the first end of the passive unit (D) being coupled to the first end of the actuator unit (C) such that the passive unit (D) reacts to the pan-tilt motion, a base () connected to the second end of each actuator unit (C), all second ends having a constant relative position with respect to one another; and a common end-effector () connected to the second end of all passive units (D) such that the common end-effector () is provided with a Sch&#xf6;nflies motion by the legs (B).
