THE DLR <i>MIROSURGE</i> SURGICAL ROBOTIC DEMONSTRATOR

摘要

This chapter gives a brief overview of the DLR MiroSurge versatile surgical robotic demonstrator, its major components, mechatronic design and control paradigms. Central component is the robot arm Miro based on intelligent mechatronic technology developed at DLR. The system is adapted to various medical applications by attaching various instruments, e.g., the dedicated instrument MICA, and a surgeon workstation providing HD 3D vision and haptic feedback. Furthermore, a selection of current research topics concerning novel MIRS applications and system components are introduced.
