Popis: |
Force feedback is currently missing in most surgical robot systems, even though it would be essential for many surgical tasks, such as palpating tissue. In this study, we used a previously developed robotic endoscope based on series elastic actuation and tested the feasibility of using it for force feedback with a pilot study. The participants had a lower test time (−27%) and lower applied forces (−23%) with force feedback enabled. While further studies are needed for validation in realistic surgical scenarios, these results suggest improved safety and efficiency in telemanipulated surgeries. |
