If you have a motorized microscope, a fast camera and a computer, you just need vision software to do robotics under your microscope. Semi-automated tools, which are assisting the human operator, are conceivable. Here you can see a proof-of-concept for this.
After the piece of sugar and the tungsten tip have been brought into field of view manually, the system automatically aligns the piece of sugar with the coordinate system of the camera. If you watch the video, you'll see, that every time the piece of sugar is lost by the vision system, the tungsten tip will be moved to a neutral position.
