This paper presents a master-slave system applied to the remote diagnosis from echographic data. The motion of the master manipulator is remotely controlled by a physician and repr...
Abstract— Biological systems achieve amazing adaptive behavior with local agents performing simple sensing and actions. Modular robots with similar properties can potentially ach...
—New 3D ultrasound visualization has enabled minimally invasive, beating-heart intracardiac procedures. However, rapid motion of internal heart structures limits the realization ...
