• This paper proposes a method to improve the operability of micro-macro tele-operations in biological researches and developments. In such fields, there are lots of labor intensive works and the smooth execution of the works requires some trained human skills. Thus, if we can improve the operability of the equipments, the efficiency of the researches and developments will be improved remarkably. The idea is to add a pseudo haptic feedback and artificial responding sounds beside the real magnified image. The image itself has enough information to operate, but adding other sensory information may ease the operation. Naturally, the real magnified haptic feedback must be helpful, but its realization is not so easy. Even pseudo or artificial sensory feedback may help enough to improve the operability. As a start of our research, this paper shows a simple experiment to ensure the effectiveness of adding the other sensory feedback.
