About

Yi Lv is a pioneering researcher in surgical robotics, with a focus on minimally invasive technologies for laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) and magnetic actuation systems. His work centers on developing *in vivo* visual robot systems, magnetic anchoring mechanisms, and soft robotic actuators to enhance precision and reduce invasiveness in clinical procedures. Lv’s key contributions include the design of a LESS visual robot with a lens-cleaning mechanism (2017, 9 citations), which improves visualization during complex surgeries, and a comprehensive review of magnetic robotization in medicine (2025, 5 citations), highlighting the potential of magnetic soft robots for precise, minimally invasive interventions. He has also advanced hand exoskeleton technology with a nested pneumatic soft actuator (2025, 4 citations), addressing motor dysfunction from repetitive tasks. Lv’s impact is evident in his exploration of kinetostatics for magnetic continuum robots (2025, 1 citation), modeling nonlinear deformations for navigating narrow body lumens. With a career spanning from early state-of-the-art reviews (2013, 2 citations) to recent innovations, Lv is shaping the future of medical robotics, offering safer, more effective tools for surgery and rehabilitation.
