The invention relates to operating apparatus for the control of a movement apparatus, in particular the movement apparatus of a micromanipulator for the manipulation of biological cells, and a method for the control of the movement apparatus. The operating apparatus comprises an electrical control device and an input device with different input zones, by means of which the movement apparatus can be controlled according to different control rules.

Dual input zone force feedback with spring-mounted sliding guide element electrically controlling a micropositioning apparatus

A device for an optically controlled micro-manipulation of biological specimens includes at least one micro-manipulator with at least one motor-displaceable cytotechnical instrument holder elements, and a microscope which has at least one functional motor-displaceable element coupled with the motor-displaceable holder in such fashion that, using a control element, a common displacement or adjustment of the holder and a displacement of the at least one functional element of the microscope can be executed in a coordinated fashion so that upon changing a size of a field of view by changing a microscope objective lens, a covered range of displacement of a cytotechnical instrument using the holder is adapted to a new field of view.

Device for optically controlled micro-manipulation of biological specimens

A device for photometric measurement of several samples () that are exposed to radiation from a light source () associated therewith. The light modified by the samples () is intercepted by an optical device () and is guided as a sum of all the light radiated from all samples () to at least one sensor () for measuring the intensity and evaluation thereof in an evaluation device () arranged downstream. The light sources () are controlled individually by a control device () and the evaluation device () and the control device () are controlled such that the evaluation device () separates the light from each sample () from the light of the other samples. The control device () modulates the light source () with various signals, which are pre-assigned to the evaluation device () and used to determine the light signals of the individual samples () from the sum signal received by the sensor ().
