Research Abstract |
We developed and evaluated a robotic manipulator which helps neurosurgeons by retracting tissues safely and steadily during microsurgery. The manipulator is an articulated arm with 6 degrees of freedom. It can mount surgical equipment such as forceps. The arm has gravity compensation mechanism to realize fine and light action. Two prototypes were developed: passive type which was driven by the surgeon, and master-slave type. It can contribute for safe, reliable, and less-invasive neurosurgery.
