Industrial Robot: An International Journal, 2003
The Japanese robotic industry has been very silent in medical applications. However, changes in this can now be observed. Above all Hitachi, an electric/machinery giant, is trying to rebuild its robotic business by entering the medical robot market.

Continuum Robots for Medical Interventions
Proceedings of the IEEE, 2022Continuum robots are not constructed with discrete joints but, instead, change shape and position their tip by flexing along their entire length. Their narrow curvilinear shape makes them well suited to passing through body lumens, natural orifices, or small surgical incisions to perform minimally invasive procedures.

The Developing Market for Medical Robotics
Proceedings of the IEEE, 2006This paper discusses the developing market for medical robotics. It first describes some of the dynamics and market drivers in health care, and then provides an outline of the areas of consideration when developing a commercial medical robot. The paper also offers three case studies of robotic systems that have been commercialized.

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 2014
Medical robots have evolved from autonomous systems to tele-operated platforms and mechanically-grounded, cooperatively-controlled robots. Whilst these approaches have seen both commercial and clinical success, uptake of these robots remains moderate because of their high cost, large physical footprint and long setup times.

Tissue characterization in medical robotics
The 23rd IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, 2014The lack of haptic feedback has negatively affected the surgeon's ability to palpate and diagnose tissue and differentiate its stiffness during surgical operations with commercially available robotic assisted surgical systems. A modular surgical instrument capable of non-invasive measurement of sideways tip/tissue interaction forces for direct ...

The safety issues of medical robotics
Reliability Engineering and System Safety, 2001Abstract In this paper, we put forward a systematic method to analyze, control and evaluate the safety issues of medical robotics. We created a safety model that consists of three axes to analyze safety factors. Software and hardware are the two material axes.

Development of a Medical Social Robot
2019 12th International Conference on Developments in eSystems Engineering (DeSE), 2019The article is devoted to the development of a socially assistive robot for healthcare institutions. The task of delivering a certain subject not present on the robot itself is reviewed very closely. An algorithm for solution of the task is proposed. Private case solutions are reviewed, and a structure of hardware and software complex of the robot is ...

Industrial Robot: An International Journal, 2008
In the Creating Humanoids article featured in our Robots supplement to issue 264 of PC Plus, we saw that robots are being designed to take on human form and function. This is intended to assist them in working in the same environment as a home or office and also so they can use the same tools as us.
