The MicroTactus is a family of instruments that we have designed to detect signals arising from the interaction of a tip with soft or hard objects and to magnify them for haptic an...
Abstract. An endoscopic solo surgery simulator was designed to quantitatively evaluate human-machine interface in robotic camera positioning systems. Our simulator can assess not o...
Abstract – This paper presents a real-time 3D ultrasoundguided robotic system, designed to autonomously navigate a surgical instrument to surgeon-specified target points. The sys...
