A soft multi-module manipulator with variable stiffness for minimally invasive surgery.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This work presents a soft manipulator for minimally invasive surgery inspired by the biological capabilities of the octopus arm. The multi-module arm is composed of three identical units, which are able to move thanks to embedded fluidic actuators th...

Master-slave robotic system for needle indentation and insertion.

Computer assisted surgery (Abingdon, England)
Bilateral control of a master-slave robotic system is a challenging issue in robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery. It requires the knowledge on contact interaction between a surgical (slave) robot and soft tissues. This paper presents a master...
