<p>A manipulator system and a manipulation method of a micromanipulation target object, which are capable of automatically executing a variety of operations about a micromanipulation target object such as an ovum that have hitherto required a skilled technique, are disclosed. A manipulator system includes: a microscope unit observing a micromanipulation target object; a pair of manipulators being electrically drivable in X-, Y- and Z-axis three directions for manipulating the micromanipulation target object; a sample stage receiving a placement of the micromanipulation target object and being electrically drivable in X-Y axis plane directions; a control unit controlling the drive of the manipulators and the drive of the sample stage; and a manipulation unit driving the manipulators and the sample stage via the control unit, wherein a manipulation tool is fitted to the manipulator, the control unit gets stored with positional information of the manipulation tool with respect to a plurality of regions set for the micromanipulation target object, and at least one of relative movements between the regions of the manipulation tool by the sample stage and/or the manipulator is automatically conducted based on the stored positional information.</p> |
