Outline of Final Research Achievements

In dental implant surgery, surgeons are required advanced techniques and extensive experiences to correctly handle the cutting device. The lack of techniques and experiences may bring on an over cut and damages to the surrounding tissue. As a result, this situation has risks of causing the subsequent complications or life-threatening accidents by heavy bleeding and nerve damage during surgery. The supporting technology for the surgeon is required to prevent these accidents. In order to solve this problem, we developed a haptic drilling robot. In this research, an automatic stop system for the haptic drilling robot will be proposed.
