Original Source: Assessment of a Hexapod Surgical System for Robotic Micro-Macro Manipulations in Ocular Surgery.
Purpose: Robotic intraocular microsurgery requires a remote center of motion (RCM) at the site of ocular penetration. We designed and tested the Hexapod Surgical System (HSS), a microrobot mounted on the da Vinci macrorobot for intraocular microsurgery. Material and Methods: Translations and rotations of the HSS were tested for range of motion and stability. Precision and dexterity were assessed by pointing and inserting a coupled probe into holes of various sizes. The stability of a nonmechanical RCM was q...
