Highly Articulated Robotic Needle Achieves Distributed Ablation of Liver Tissue

RA-L 2017

Robotic needle steering will improve percutaneous radio-frequency ablation (RFA) in the liver by performing distributed ablations without requiring multiple punctures of the liver capsule, thus enabling the treatment of large or multifocal tumors. However, state-of-the-art asymmetric-tip robotic nee

Tendon-Based Stiffening for a Pneumatically Actuated Soft Manipulator

RA-L 2016

There is an emerging trend toward soft robotics due to its extended manipulation capabilities compared to traditionally rigid robot links, showing promise for an extended applicability to new areas. However, as a result of the inherent property of soft robotics being less rigid, the ability to contr
