Vibrotactile force feedback system for minimally invasive surgical procedures
2006 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, 2006Lack of adequate force feedback for the surgeon in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) can lead to unnecessary trauma to tissue and adverse events during surgery. The successful use of vibrotactile stimulation to augment overloaded or deficient sensory modes in the human operator in other application areas warrants an investigation into its application in
