Abstract

In this paper, user-friendly micro manipulation system for the bio-medical scientist is introduced. An operator usually is not familiar with robot technology. However, supports for RT system have great means for such users. So, user friendly system architecture is necessary to provide useful operation scheme. In this paper, the component-based architecture for micro manipulation system is proposed. Realizing component-based architecture, OpenRTM-aist, which is one of the robot middleware, is focused. And, based on this middleware, micro manipulation system and observation system are constructed as examples.
