In one embodiment, the present invention is directed to a system that enables controllable positioning of a fully-released micro-stage. The fully-released micro-stage may be assembled onto a detector substrate that enables micro-positioning feedback. A payload structure (e.g., a lens, mirror, manipulator, and/or the like) may be assembled or coupled onto the fully-release microstage. Snap connectors may facilitate the mechanical coupling associated with assembly of the various components. The fully-released microstage may be actuated by motion amplified actuators that are coupled to anchored flexures. Moreover, the actuation of the fully-release microstage may produce fully decoupled movement by coupling the actuators and respective flexures to the stage in a mirrored fashion.
