Untethered magnetic microrobots hold the potential to penetrate hard-to-reach areas of the human body and to perform therapy in a controlled way. In the past decade, impressive advancements have been made in this field but the clinical adoption of magnetoresponsive microrobots is still hampered by s…
MRI compatibility, which often is a requirement for the new medical soft robot projects, greatly reduces available actuation methods and sensors. An example of such project is STIFF-FLOP, which aims to develop a soft silicone manipulator actuated by pressure. The current arm construction and method…
Supervised robotic platforms, able to perform a non-invasive therapy or minimal invasive surgery, represent one of the main achievements in recent years. Robotic-assisted medical procedures with medical doctor, patient and medical assistants interacting with a robotic platform can be seen as a parad…
