Simulated Telerobotic Brain Surgery

Haptic enabled simulated telesurgical operation using custom haptic interface and CRS robot with ATI mini40 forcesensor. Matlab Simulink Real-Time Workshop (RTW) and Quanser Wincon was used to implement the control software.

In the presence of communication delay in a haptic teleoperation system, stability is severely affected. We use wave transforms and signal filtering to make things stable. Delayed teleoperation has applications in telesurgery and space exploration.

Haptic Feedback for Robot Telesurgery: Test Platform

A robotic platform developed as part of a Major Qualifying Project (Senior Capstone) at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. The overall aim of the project is to effectively restore haptic feedback during robot assisted telesurgery. This robot is capable of articulating a da Vinci surgical tool about a remote center and serves as a test bed for haptics research.

This video should teach users the basic operation of the RAVEN surgical robot. It teaches use of the foot pedal, moving in Cartesian space, rolling the tool, articulating the wrist, and grasping.
