Experimental results on grasping of target micro-objects by using multiple micro-fingers. The proposed method is general in the sense that any rod-shaped micro-objects that are trappable can be used as fingers, and it also allows users to add more micro-fingers or remove redundant ones (A) Two S-pombe yeasts are trapped as the micro-fingers, which are then coordinated to grasp and rotate a target micro-object. (B) Three S-pombe yeasts are tapped to form a three-fingered micro-hand for grasping and manipulation tasks. (C) Three micro-rods are trapped as micro fingers.
