Claim 7:
8. A driving method of a manipulation system including a sample stage configured such that a cell is placed thereon, a first manipulator including a first pipette for holding the minute object, and a second manipulator including a second pipette for operating the cell that is held on the first pipette, the driving method comprising:
moving a tip of the second pipette to a certain insertion start position of the cell;
moving the tip of the second pipette from the insertion start position to a certain push-in position at a constant speed or a first acceleration; and
after a predetermined time, moving the tip of the second pipette from the push-in position to a certain manipulation execution position at a second acceleration greater than the first acceleration,
wherein the controller detects a position of a nucleolus of the cell based on image data of the imager, and
wherein a distance in an intersecting direction orthogonal to an insertion direction of the second pipette between a center of the nucleolus and the manipulation execution position is greater than a radius of the nucleolus.
