State of the art in robots used in minimally invasive surgeries. Natural Orifice Transluminal Surgery (NOTES) as a particular case
Carlos Eduardo Díaz, Roemi Fernández, Manuel Armada, Felipe de Jesús García Gutiérrez– This paper aims to provide an insight into recent advancements and developments of robotics for Natural Orifice Transluminal Surgery (NOTES) procedures.
Volumetric view planning for 3D reconstruction with multiple manipulators
Liangzhi Li, Nanfeng XiaoThis paper aims to propose a new view planning method which can be used to calculate the next-best-view (NBV) for multiple manipulators simultaneously and build an automated…
A markerless human-manipulators interface using multi-sensors
Ping Zhang, Xin Liu, Guanglong Du, Bin Liang, Xueqian WangThe purpose of this paper is to present a markerless human–manipulators interface which maps the position and orientation of human end-effector (EE, the center of the palm) to…
Robotic training for hand movements during manual welding with real-time alarm feedback
Mustafa Suphi Erden, Aude BillardThe purpose of this study is to develop a robotic training system for the hand movements during manual welding. The system provides real-time notice-feedback with sound or light…
Workspace calculating and kinematic modelling of a flexible continuum manipulator constructed by steel-wires
GuoHua Gao, Yue Liu, Hao Wang, MingYang Song, Han RenThe purpose of this paper is to present a new method to establish a kinematic model for a continuum manipulator, whose end can be controlled to move in a three-dimensional…
