While Product of Exponentials (POE) formula has been gaining maturity in modeling the kinematics of a serial-link robot, the Denavit-Hartenberg (D-H) notation is still the most widely used due to its intuitive and concise geometric interpretation of the robot. This paper has developed an analytical…
The Denavit-Hartenberg (D-H) model and the product of exponentials (POE) model have been two popular methods for modeling the kinematics of a serial-link robot. While these two models are equivalent in essence, no study has revealed how to convert from the POE model to the D-H model. The conversion
Continuum robots are increasingly used in minimally invasive surgeries. To date, the concentric tube mechanism and the cable-driven mechanism have been two prevalent mechanisms for constructing continuum robots. As these two mechanisms complement each other, it is worth exploring the possibility of
Knee arthroscopy is a very challenging surgical procedure that would strongly benefit from systems that can continuously map the inside of the knee, localize the arthroscope and surgical tools, and control instruments using visual information. A fundamental requirement of most of these systems is th
