SutureBot: A Precision Framework & Benchmark For Autonomous End-to-End Suturing

Jesse Haworth, Juo-Tung Chen, Nigel Nelson, Ji Woong Kim, Masoud Moghani, Chelsea Finn +1

NeurIPS 2025poster

Robotic suturing is a prototypical long-horizon dexterous manipulation task, requiring coordinated needle grasping, precise tissue penetration, and secure knot tying. Despite numerous efforts toward end-to-end autonomy, a fully autonomous suturing pipeline has yet to be demonstrated on physical hard…

Development and Evaluation of a Robotic Vessel Positioning System for Semi-Automatic Microvascular Anastomosis

Jesse Haworth, Justin Opfermann, Michael Kam, Yaning Wang, Robin Yang, Jin U. Kang +1

ICRA 2023poster

This paper describes a novel tissue positioning system with an integrated suturing robot and demonstrates its ability to perform semi-automatic anastomoses of synthetic blood vessels. We began with a finite element analysis-based design consideration for achieving adequate grasping of blood vessels…
