Description
Summary:With the increasing emphasis put on research and development in the industry, more sophisticated technology were born. The biomedical engineering field is no stranger to tremendous research and development efforts in the recent years. As such this project was designed to study one of the technologies developed since the early ‘80s by Arthur Ashkin; the optical trapping system which is now widely commercially available and often used in the study and field of biomedicine and bioengineering. Without the knowledge of engineering, the system would not be as sophisticated and advanced as it is now.
