The needle-sized surgical tools used in arthroscopy, otolaryngology, and other surgical fields could become even more valuable to surgeons if endowed with the ability to navigate around sharp corners to manipulate or visualize tissue. We present a needle-sized wrist design that grants this ability. It can be easily interfaced with manual tools or concentric tube robots and is straightforward and inexpensive...
A characterization of the dynamic narrowband on- body to off-body area channel is presented based on realtime measurements of the time domain channel response at carrier frequencies near the 900 MHz and 2400 MHz Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) bands. A statistical characterization is presented of received signal amplitude when the subject's body is standing and walking, transmitted from the...
A statistical characterization of the narrowband dynamic human on-body area channel, with application to biomedical/health information monitoring, is presented based on measured received signal amplitude. We consider varying amounts of body movement, and a variety of transmit-receive pair (Tx-Rx) locations on the human body. The characterization is presented for two different frequencies, near the...
