Design of a novel wearable laparoscope manipulator: SMART (Synthetic Muscle Actuator based Robotic Technology)
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the development of a novel wearable laparoscope manipulator which is put on the surface of the patient’s hypogastric region, using the artificial muscles. The manipulator was composed of a Stewart-Gough Platform with six degrees of freedom. This manipulator is compact and very lightweight. Its weight is 364g. This manipulator can be sterilized and cleaned, and this manipulator can use general laparoscope.The manipulator’s concept is designed with two major criteria: safety and adaptability.

Adaptive Voltage-based Control of Direct-drive Robots Driven by Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors
Tracking control of the direct-drive robot manipulators in high-speed is a challenging problem. The Coriolis and centrifugal torques become dominant in the high-speed motion control. The dynamical model of the robotic system including the robot manipulator and actuators is highly nonlinear, heavily coupled, uncertain and computationally extensive in non-companion form. In order to overcome thes...
