Title
Surgical task-space optimisation of the CYCLOPS robotic system.
Abstract
The CYCLOPS is a cable-driven parallel mechanism used for minimally invasive applications, with the ability to be customised to different surgical needs; allowing it to be made procedure- and patient-specific. For adequate optimisation, however, appropriate data on clinical constraints and task-space is required. Whereas the former can be provided through preoperative planning and imaging, the latter remains a problem, primarily for highly dexterous MIS systems. The current work focuses on the development of a task-space optimisation method for the CYCLOPS system and the development of a data collection method in a simulation environment for minimally invasive task-spaces. The same data collection method can be used for the development of other minimally invasive platforms. A case-study is used to illustrate the developed method for Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD). This paper shows that using this method, the system can be succesfully optimised for this application.
