Accuracy evaluation of hand-eye calibration techniques for vision-guided robots.

PloS one
Hand-eye calibration is an important step in controlling a vision-guided robot in applications like part assembly, bin picking and inspection operations etc. Many methods for estimating hand-eye transformations have been proposed in literature with v...

Modular robotic platform for precision neurosurgery with a bio-inspired needle: System overview and first in-vivo deployment.

PloS one
Over the past 10 years, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has shown significant benefits compared to conventional surgical techniques, with reduced trauma, shorter hospital stays, and shorter patient recovery times. In neurosurgical MIS procedures, in...

Comparison of Early Urinary Continence, Oncological Outcomes, and Postoperative Complications in Retzius-Sparing and Standard Approach Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy.

Journal of laparoendoscopic & advanced surgical techniques. Part A
The aim of the study is to compare the results of early urinary continence (UC), pathological results, console time (CT), and perioperative morbidity in patients who underwent transperitoneal robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (TR-RARP) and Retziu...

Review of Learning-Based Robotic Manipulation in Cluttered Environments.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Robotic manipulation refers to how robots intelligently interact with the objects in their surroundings, such as grasping and carrying an object from one place to another. Dexterous manipulating skills enable robots to assist humans in accomplishing ...

Live fish learn to anticipate the movement of a fish-like robot.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The ability of an individual to predict the outcome of the actions of others and to change their own behavior adaptively is called anticipation. There are many examples from mammalian species-including humans-that show anticipatory abilities in a soc...

A bioinspired fishbone continuum robot with rigid-flexible-soft coupling structure.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Rigid-flexible-soft coupled robots are an important development direction of robotics, which face many theoretical and technical challenges in their design, manufacture, and modeling. Inspired by fishbones, we propose a novel cable-driven single-back...

Virtual classroom proficiency-based progression for robotic surgery training (VROBOT): a randomised, prospective, cross-over, effectiveness study.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robotic surgery training has lacked evidence-based standardisation. We aimed to determine the effectiveness of adjunctive interactive virtual classroom training (VCT) in concordance with the self-directed Fundamentals of Robotic Surgery (FRS) curricu...

Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery with a fluorescent near-infrared ray ureteral catheter for a rectal cancer patient with pelvic kidney: A case report.

Asian journal of endoscopic surgery
An 85-year-old woman presented with a stomachache after a meal and was admitted to the previous clinic. Multi-detector computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen showed wall thickening in the rectum and right ectopic pelvic kidney. Colonoscopy revealed ...

The evolving use of robotic surgery: a population-based analysis.

Surgical endoscopy
INTRODUCTION: Robotic surgery has integrated into the healthcare system despite limited evidence demonstrating its clinical benefit. Our objectives were (i) to describe secular trends and (ii) patient- and system-level determinants of the receipt of ...
