Advanced Sensing Technologies (ASTs) have a great potential to improve surgical quality and to further develop Surgical Robotic Systems (SRSs), enhancing their technical and autonomy capabilities. Among these sensing techniques, Electrical Bioimpedance (EBI) provides a non-invasive, low-cost, and sa
Vision systems are often used jointly with robotic manipulators to perform automated tasks in industrial applications. Still, the correct set up of such workcells is difficult and requires significant resources. One of the main challenges, when implementing such systems in industrial use cases, is t…
In this paper we present an initial approach towards reversible robot movement primitives. Our approach is a modification of Dynamic Movement Primitives (DMPs), a widely used framework for robot learning from demonstration. DMPs are based on dynamical systems to guarantee properties such as converge…
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an interferometric imaging modality with spatial resolution in the micrometer range. The OCT signal can be used to detect small structures to measure deformation or to characterize tissue. Moreover, OCT can be realized through a single optical fiber, i.e., it ca…
