Abstract :
We have successfully developed a remote force-feedback tele-nanomanipulation system aimed at allowing any number of computers connected to a TCP/IP network to control a positioning stage supporting a sample and to receive a feedback on the deflection of the AFM tip used as manipulation tool as well as a microscope image for visual feedback of the operation. Force feedback informations are sent back to the manipulator at a rate arbitrarily set to about 10 Hz
