Background: With the increasing presence of surgical robots minimally invasive surgery, there is a growing necessity of a versatile surgical system for deep and narrow workspaces.
Methods: We developed a versatile system for constrained workspaces called SmartArm. It has two industrial‐type robotic arms with flexible tools attached to its distal tip, with a total of nine active degrees‐of‐freedom...
BackgroundMicrosurgery is a widely performed process in neurosurgery. However, it is difficult for surgeons because manipulating small and long instruments under a microscope often restricts dexterity. Hand tremors are also an issue, as the accuracy required for microsurgery is very high.
MethodA master–slave robotic platform has been developed for neurosurgery. A position–orientation decoupled design...
