Robotic telesurgery application could greatly benefit from force control, providing safe and stable application even under time delays and other disturbing conditions. This paper describes a soft tissue model which can be integrated into the control loop of a teleoperational master -- slave robot. Three alternations of the Wiechert model have been implemented and matched against experimental data...
Background The origins of telemedicine date back to the early 1970s, and combined with the concept of minimally invasive surgery, the idea of surgical robotics was born in the late 1980s based on the principle of providing active telepresence to surgeons. Many research projects were initiated, creating a set of instruments for endoscopic telesurgery, while visionary surgeons built networks for telesurgical...
Robotic technology provides advanced solutions for new challenges in human space exploration. The aim of this paper is to identify the potential risks and to present the concept of a robotic surgical support system that could accompany the first astronauts to their historical journey to Mars. By integrating cutting-edge mechatronic equipment, semi-autonomous robots could ensure the medical support...
