In this paper we present GRASPER, a graph constraint solver, based on set constraints. We specify GRASPER’s constraints and we make use of our framework to model a problem in the...
This paper examines the role of grasper compliance and kinematic configuration in environments where object size and location may not be well known. A grasper consisting of a pair ...
: Conventional laparoscopic tools do not have the ability of providing force feedback to a surgeon during surgical procedures. Loss of haptic feedback in MIS procedures is a disadv...
