A few years ago, we presented a new parallel robot kinematics (called “Dionis”) suitable for positioning an endoscopic tool above a patient, with a virtual center of rotation at the insertion point. A first prototype has been realized. This enables us to address a few specific mechanical design issues with the purpose of significantly increasing the ...
