Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery (NOTES) has recently attracted lots of attention, promising surgical procedures with fewer complications, better cosmesis, lower pains and faster recovery. Several robotic systems were developed aiming to enable abdominal surgeries in a NOTES manner. Although these robotic systems demonstrated the surgical concept, characteristics which could fully enable...
Research on robot-assisted laparoscopic SPA (Single Port Access) surgery and N.O.T.E.S (Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery) have thrived in the past a few years. A configuration similarity between these surgical robotic slaves is that two robotic arms are extended from the same access port (either a laparoscope or an endoscope) for surgical interventions. However, upon designing such...
In this paper, an electromyography (EMG)-based handwriting recognition method was proposed for a latent tendency of natural user interface. The subjects wrote the characters at a normal speed, and six channels of EMG signals were recorded from forearm muscles. The dynamic time warping (DTW) algorithm was used to eliminate the time axis variance during writing. The process for template making and matching...
