SnakeRaven: Teleoperation of a 3D Printed Snake-like Manipulator Integrated to the RAVEN II Surgical Robot
Description
Telerobotic systems combined with miniaturised snake-like or elephant-trunk robotic arms can improve the ergonomics and accessibility in minimally invasive surgical tasks such as knee arthroscopy. Such systems, however, are usually designed in a specific and integral approach, making it expensive to adapt to various procedures or patient anatomies. 3D printed instruments with a detachable design can bring the benefits of patient-specific customisation, affordability, and adaptability to new clinical scenarios. However, the integration of such snake-like instruments to standard telerobotic systems can be challenging in terms of design and control. In this study, a teleoperation system is developed to control and steer the pose of SnakeRaven: a 3D printed, customisable snake-like end-effector attached to the RAVEN II platform for the application of fibre-optic knee arthroscopy. Algorithms for the parametric inverse kinematics and mapping between the RAVEN II joint space to the coupled tendon-driven rolling joints are developed. The controller is tested and validated on the physical prototype interfacing with the RAVEN II platform in a teleoperation experiment.

Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
