►Why do weneed a global sensorfornanohandling? ►Insufficient robot / sensoraccuracy
► Buy betterrobots! ► But: MorethanthreeDoF?
►Imprecisemounting / manufacturing
► Do calibration! ► But: Usingwhatreference? ► But: Feedingsystem?
►Drift
► Do drift compensation (AFM..)! ► But: Whatifmoretoolsarerequired?
