: In this paper a new approach for a control and safety architecture for a modular task adaptable medical robot is described. The concept has been evaluated with the MINARO robot, ...
— Robots are increasingly being used in Computer Integrated Surgery (CIS) systems, yet to our knowledge, there is no open source software that is specifically targeted at this a...
We propose an image-based motion tracking algorithm that can be used with stereo endoscopic and microscope systems. The tracking problem is considered to be a time-varying optimiza...

We have developed an image-based human-machine interface that tracks the surgeon’s face robustly in real-time(30Hz) and does not require to use any body-contacted sensing devices...
The manipulation of fast moving, delicate tissues in beating heart procedures presents a considerable challenge to the surgeon. A robotic force tracking system can assist the surge...
