In recent years, the number of elderly persons and lower limb disabled people has increased and most of them need a cane or a wheelchair to support their walk in their daily lives. Even though the cane is quite common and widely used it has the disadvantage of putting a large load on the upper limbs. In this study, we aim to develop an assistive tool in the form of a robotic assisted cane to support...
Remote surgery is one of the most desired applications in the context of recent advanced medical technologies. For a future expansion of remote surgery, it is important to use conventional network infrastructures such as Internet. However, using such conventional network infrastructures, we are confronting time-delay problems of data transmission. In this paper, a remote surgery experiment between...
Several robotic surgical systems have been developed for MIS (minimally invasive surgery) including commercialized products such as da Vinci and ZEUS. We have developed a minimally invasive surgical system, which have carried out remote surgery experiments for five times at the writing time. In this paper, a remote surgery experiment, which was conducted between Japan and Korea by using the developed...
