ABSTRACT:
A driving apparatus which drives an object along a guide surface in X and Y directions. The apparatus includes a first actuator which drives the object in the X direction, a second actuator which drives the object in the Y direction, and a controller which controls the first and second actuators. The first and second actuators each have a reaction force counter which moves upon receipt of a reaction force generated in driving the object. In moving the object standing at a first position to a second position and stopping the object, the controller controls the first and second actuators such that acceleration periods of the two coincide and deceleration periods of the two coincide. Also, the object moves on a straight line connecting the first position and the second position.
