Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The application of robot technology in fracture reduction ensures the minimal invasiveness and accurate operation process. Most of the existing robot assisted fracture reduction systems don't have the function of bone collision detection, which is very important for system safety. In view of the deficiencies in the research of this field, a broken bone collision detection method based on the slope ratio of force curve was proposed in this paper, which could realize the real-time detection.
