It’s our pleasure to announce the winner of the application note award 2012:

The winner is Andreas Schmid from the University College of London in the UK. Together with his colleagues Mandayam A. Srinivasan and Stefan Thalhammer they invented an haptic micro-manipulation system based on our positioners and an ANC350 controller. Using a built-in force sensor and a force-feedback joystick, you can touch, feel and move even smallest nanoparticles with it!!

We would like to thank all of our contestants for their many interesting and diversified submissions!
