Evaluation of Sensor Configurations for Robotic Surgical Instruments
Designing surgical instruments for robotic-assisted minimally-invasive surgery (RAMIS) is challenging due to constraints on the number and type of sensors imposed by considerations such as space or the need for sterilization. A new method for evaluating the usability of virtual teleoperated surgical instruments based on virtual sensors is presented. This method uses virtual prototyping of the s...
متن کاملSurgical Instruments for Robotic Microsurgery
• Micro-scale surgery requires a very technically advanced skill set, including high hand-eye coordination and little-tono hand tremor. • To improve microsurgical procedures, such as vein suturing, we have developed tools for the REMS, a cooperativelycontrolled surgical robot that reduces tremor when operating. • Our goal is to design effective needle holders and validate the use of the REMS by...
متن کاملModel-Based Error Correction for Flexible Robotic Surgical Instruments
Robots promise to enhance minimally-invasive surgery, but flexion of the thin instrument shaft introduces error into models of the robot kinematics. Visual or electromagnetic tracking of the instrument tip provides correct forward kinematics, but uncertainty in shaft bending and port location leaves residual errors in inverse kinematics. These errors can cause incorrect motions that preclude th...
متن کاملAn LPV Approach to Sensor Fault Diagnosis of Robotic Arm
One of the major challenges in robotic arms is to diagnosis sensor fault. To address this challenge, this paper presents an LPV approach. Initially, the dynamics of a two-link manipulator is modelled with a polytopic linear parameter varying structure and then by using a descriptor system approach and a robust design of a suitable unknown input observer by means of pole placement method along w...
متن کاملQuality of surgical instruments.
INTRODUCTION Many surgeons will have encountered the scissors that would not cut, and the artery clip that comes off in a deep difficult location, but it would be reasonable to assume that new instruments should be of assured quality. This study reports the surprising findings of a local quality control exercise for new instruments supplied to a single trust. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between Jan...
