Title
Optimization of a spherical mechanism for a minimally invasive surgical robot: theoretical and experimental approaches.
Abstract
With a focus on design methodology for developing a compact and lightweight minimally invasive surgery (MIS) robot manipulator, the goal of this study is progress toward a next-generation surgical robot system that will help surgeons deliver healthcare more effectively. Based on an extensive database of in-vivo surgical measurements, the workspace requirements were clearly defined. The pivot point...
