In robotic surgery, a surgeon checks only a surgical site of patient in the progress of surgery by vision and sound information. In order to solve this limited information, the haptic function is necessary. And haptic surgical robot is also necessary to design a haptic master device. The master device for laparoscope operation with cable-conduit was developed in previous research to give haptic function. It suggested a possibility of developing a master device by using the cable-conduit. However, it is very inconvenient to use. Therefore, this paper suggests a new mechanism design structure to solve the problems of the previous work by new forming a new master device. And it has proved that it's usability is better than previous one. Furthermore it has also experimented and analyzed that a backlash of new master device is compensated by smooth backlash inverse algorithm.

Robotic grasping in unstructured environments poses a significant challenge, demanding precise estimation of gripping positions for diverse and unknown objects. Generative Grasping Convolution Neural Network (GG-CNN) can estimate the position and direction that can be gripped by a robot gripper for an unknown object based on a three-dimensional depth map. Since GG-CNN uses only a depth map as an input, the precision of the depth map is the most critical factor affecting the result. To address the challenge of depth map precision, we integrate the Segment Anything Model renowned for its robust zero-shot performance across various segmentation tasks. We adjust the components corresponding to the segmented areas in the depth map aligned through external calibration. The proposed method was validated on the Cornell dataset and SurgicalKit dataset. Quantitative analysis compared to existing methods showed a 49.8% improvement with the dataset including surgical instruments. The results highlight the practical importance of our approach, especially in scenarios involving thin and metallic objects.

When using commercialized robot assisted laparoscopic, surgeon has met some problems to depend only on image of the surgical field. To solve it, there were various researches. The previous study showed that it is possible to estimate the operation force on the commercialized instrument inside patient without sensors. To apply the estimated force to a haptic master console for the laparoscopy surgical robot system, the light haptic master console should be designed. This paper suggests the design of lighter master console handle to reduce a weight of the console whose structure can match with the joint and DOF of an instrument. A cable-conduit mechanism is designed to make light structure to perform a delicate manipulation. The cable-conduit mechanism removes the weight and inertia of link caused by haptic actuator and encoder which is separated from handle link of a manipulator.

This paper presents feedforward controllers to improve the control performance of the motion and grasping force of a surgical instrument used in an MIS (Minimally Invasive Surgery) robot. The surgical instrument has a long distance between the drive motors and its active joints. Therefore, the gripper on the instrument is controlled by a cable drive mechanism, which generates a coupled motion between the wrist joint and the grip direction. In order to solve the problem, this paper analyzes the pulley composition of the surgical instrument and proposes feedforward controllers to eliminate the coupled motion. Furthermore, feedforward controllers to regulate the grasping force are proposed to deal with another coupling problem between the grasping force of the instrument and the motion of the instrument joints. The experimental results demonstrate the improved control performance of the motion and grasping force of the instrument.

This paper explores design and control methods of a surgical robot for total hip replacement surgery which can be easily maneuvered by a surgeon Like an advanced surgical tool. The 3-DOF in-parallel surgical robot is fixed directly onto patient's femur by the bone clamp during surgery. With the master/slave combined surgical robot, the surgeon can directly control the motion of the surgical robot with surgeon's experience and judgment during operation. For the easiness of operation, the master/slave combined robot is controlled using admittance control paradigm. And for the precise operation, the robot motion is restricted at the surgical boundary using virtual hard wall display.

정형외과 수술의 임상적 결과에 영향을 미치는 요소는 여러 가지가 있지만 수술적 수기가 가장 중요한 요인이며 로봇공학은 술기를 보다 정확하고 일관되게 수행하기 위해 도입되었다. 정형외과 영역에서는 20년 전부터 로봇수술을 사용하였으나 실용성 문제와 합병증의 발생으로 일부 로봇은 도태되었으며 단점을 개선한 로봇이 소개되고 있다. 대부분의 로봇수술은 인공관절수술 분야에서 시행되었고 치환물의 정렬과 위치 선정에서 우수한 것으로 보고되고 있다. 그러나 임상적 결과의 우수성, 실용성, 가성비 등의 측면에서 제한점이 있고 일부 로봇수술에서는 합병증 발생 빈도가 높다는 보고가 있었다. 초기 로봇수술은 수술자의 개입 없이 계획된 수술이 진행되는 능동형 로봇수술이 주를 이루었으나 최근에는 수술과정에서 실시간 피드백을 통해 술자가 술 전 계획을 변경할 수 있고, 햅틱 경계 내에서 제한된 골절제를 함으로써 주요 혈관, 신경, 인대 등의 손상을 최소화할 수 있는 반능동형 로봇수술이 소개되고 있다.

Since surgery is usually a difficult task because of physiological tremor, eye strain, and tremor, contagious and radioactive hazard, it is necessary to develop micro-surgery telerobotic system using improved tools suitable for their specific tasks. Nowadays the growth of interest on microsurgery and medical applications of robotics has been so rapid. But the medical robots are only practical applications of the industrial robots. This paper identifies five general areas of advanced microsurgery based on the current technological background and expertise, and analyzes the motion, tool and accuracy with respect to microsurgery task, and proposed the criteria to evaluate micro-surgical manipulator. The analysis of microusrgery can be heplful to clarify some basic concept and design of micro-surgical manipulators. With these data we will alos propose an efficient in-parallel-platform manipulator having special kinematic structrue structure suitable for microsurgery.

This paper proposes a low-cost robotic surgery system composed of a general purpose robotic arm, an interface for daVinci surgical robot tools and a modular haptic controller utilizing smart actuators. The 7 degree of freedom (DOF) haptic controller is suspended in the air using the gravity compensation, and the 3D position and orientation of the controller endpoint is calculated from the joint readings and the forward kinematics of the haptic controller. Then the joint angles for a general purpose robotic arm is calculated using the analytic inverse kinematics so that that the tooltip reaches the target position through a small incision. Finally, the surgical tool wrist joints angles are calculated to make the tooltip correctly face the desired orientation. The suggested system is implemented and validated using the physical UR5e robotic arm.

LAS (Laparoscopy Assisted Surgery) has been substituted alternatively for traditional open surgery. However, when using a commercialized robot assisted laparoscopic such as Da Vinci, surgeons have encountered some problems due to having to depend only on information by visual feedback. To solve this problem, a haptic function is required. In order to realize the haptic teleoperation system, a force feedback and bilateral control system are needed. Previous research showed that the perturbation value estimated by a SPO (Sliding Perturbation Observer) followed a reaction force that loaded on the surgical robot instrument. Thus, in this paper, the force feedback problem of surgical robots is solved through the reaction force estimation method. This paper then introduces the possibility of the haptic function realization of a laparoscopic surgery robot using a bilateral control system. For bilateral control, the master uses an impedance control and the slave uses a SMC (Sliding Mode Control). The experiment results show that a torque and force sensorless teleoperation system can be implemented using a bilateral control structure.
