Spinal Surgical Robotics: A Technical Overview and Key Concept Review

August 30, 2022August 30, 2022 amanjainsooraj

The use of robotic systems to assist with surgical procedures has increased significantly over the past decade. Robotic surgery is widely adopted as a part of daily life in fields such as general surgery, urology, and obstetrics and gynecology. Surgical procedures involving the spine often require fixation through placement of pedicle screws, an operation that can be augmented with the use of robotic technology. There is little room for error in pedicle screw placement, as incorrect screw placement can lead to serious complications such as neurological or vascular damage. The…

Haptic Glove is a wearable device that simulates the touch of a virtual object! Some Companies created a glove that provides tactile feedback of virtual objects. When activated, it provides real feedback about the tactile sensation of holding a virtual object. Feedback includes temperature, weight, the size (diameter) of the object, and visual feedback will be provided using a Matlab interface. While this is just a demo, potential applications for a haptic glove includes use in virtual reality, gaming (like playing tennis the Wii, but you actually get to feel…
