Gateway Event - Concentric Tube Robot Design and Optimization
Date:
Fri, 29/11/2019 - 15:00 to Sat, 30/11/2019 - 15:45
Location:
Informatics Forum, G.03, University of Edinburgh
Speaker:
Dr Christos Bergeles
King's College, London
Abstract:
Concentric tube robots are continuum robots that can navigate the human body to reach deep seated anatomical locations. This talk will describe computational methods to design concentric tube robots for given surgical tasks and anatomical constraints. It will proceed to discussing the challenges in real time kinematics estimation and dexterity evaluation, and will conclude with a demonstration of how new controllers can improve their usability and safety and bring them closer to clinical realisation.
