Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2669011A1] The deposition aid (2) has a holder (6) for sample carrier (8) that is provided with several sample locations, and a guidance system which selects the sample locations. A projector projects the constructed two-dimensional optical image onto a portion of the sample location so that the selected sample location is highlighted with respect to neighboring not-selected sample locations that are perceived by the human eye. A control system (10) actuates the device for the automatic detection of manual deposition process. An independent claim is included for a method for assisting manual preparation of samples.
