  • Abstract
    In this paper, two methods of marking microgrippers are described, which can be used for vision recognition in micromanipulation tasks. The two techniques are shape-based FIB (focused ion beam) triangle machining and colour-based polymer ink marking; these have been applied to several microgrippers that were manufactured from stainless steel using micro-EDM (electro discharge machining). A method for detecting the colour-based markers was developed and the results presented
