Nanocharacterization Station with Augmented Reality User Interface for Cell Biology Research

SPM nanocharacterization has opened amazing perspectives in cell biology research. Nevertheless, the technique is still far away from being used in clinical routine studies due to the complexity of operation. This work presents the implementation of a man-machine interface in a multiprobe nanocharacterization station. The interface is based on an augmented reality system which combines 3D real-time visualization and haptic operation. Advances respects to the previous approaches reported in the literature are the use of a specific nanotool for each task and the implementation of three different working modes. These characteristics allow researchers to perform complex experiments in an easiest way. The ability of the augmented reality system to feel and modify the sample surface is validated in the experiments presented. In spite of being a proof of concept, a discussion on how to get from the research laboratory to the clinical one is presented at the end of the work.
