Development of a Prototype Robotic System for Radiosurgery with Upper Hemispherical Workspace
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a specialized robotic system under development for radiosurgery using a small-sized linear accelerator. The robotic system is a 5-DOF manipulator that can be installed above a patient to make an upper hemispherical workspace centered in a target point. In order to determine the optimal lengths of the link, we consider the requirements for the workspace of a linear accelerator for radiosurgery. A more suitable kinematic structure than conventional industrial manipulators is proposed, and the kinematic analysis is also provided. A graphic simulator is implemented and used for dynamic analysis. Based on those results, a prototype manipulator and its control system are under development.

متن کاملDevelopment of A Head Docking Device for Linac-based Stereotactic Radiosurgery System to be Installed on Neptun 10 PC Linac
Introduction: Stereotactic radiosurgery is a technique for the treatment of intracranial lesions with highly collimated x-ray beam. Linac-based radiosurgery is currently performed by two techniques: couch or pedestal mounted. In the first technique, a device is required to affix patient's head to a couch and moreover to translate it accurately. Structure of suc...

متن کاملExperimental Identification and Hybrid PID-Fuzzy Position Control of Continuum Robotic Arms
Continuum robotic arms that are inspired from nature, have many advantages compared to traditional robots, which motivate researchers in this field. Dynamic modeling and controlling these robots are challenging subjects due to complicated nonlinearities and considerable uncertainties existing in these structures. In this paper, first a dynamic three-dimensional model of the continuum robotic ar...
متن کاملDesigning a Robust Control Scheme for Robotic Systems with an Adaptive Observer
This paper introduces a robust task-space control scheme for a robotic system with an adaptive observer. The proposed approach does not require the availability of the system states and an adaptive observer is developed to estimate the state variables. These estimated states are then used in the control scheme. First, the dynamic model of a robot is derived. Next, an observer-based robust contr...
