Abstract— The absence of force feedback remains a major bottleneck in the development of robotic laparoendoscopic single-site (R-LESS) surgery, reducing the control precision of surgical instruments and increasing the risk of tissue damage. To address this challenge, we propose a miniature triaxial …
The use of continuum manipulators in surgical applications has increased recently. A continuum surgical manipulator is usually teleoperated after it is fully inserted into a patient's cavity. Clearly, it is still possible to control the continuum surgical manipulator while it is not fully inserted,
Robot-assisted laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery has gained significant attentions due to its enhanced dexterity, improved precision, natural eye-hand coordination, etc. In these procedures, stick-like surgical tools with distal wrists are usually maneuvered by multiple patient-side manipulato
