About

Saeed Sarkar is a pioneering figure in the field of medical robotics, with a particular focus on advancing surgical automation and telesurgery systems in Iran. His key research areas include robotic kinematics calibration, teleoperated surgical systems, and the broader development of medical robotics infrastructure. Sarkar’s most significant contribution is the development of the “Sina” surgical robot, a platform designed for precise, minimally invasive procedures. His 2020 study on hybrid kinematic calibration for the Sina robot (13 citations) introduced a novel method combining analytical and machine learning approaches to solve complex inverse kinematics—a critical challenge for ensuring surgical accuracy. This work is complemented by his 2019 paper on the Sina Robotic Telesurgery System (12 citations), which demonstrated the feasibility of remote surgical operations. Sarkar also authored a foundational overview of medical robotics in Iran (2012, 2 citations), highlighting the strategic importance of this technology for national healthcare. His research has laid the groundwork for integrating robotics into Iranian surgical practice, addressing both technical calibration hurdles and the systemic adoption of robotic assistance.
