Affordance-Based Disambiguation of Surgical Instructions for Collaborative Robot-Assisted Surgery
Ana Davila, Jacinto Colan, Yasuhisa Hasegawa
Effective human-robot collaboration in surgery is affected by the inherent ambiguity of verbal communication. This paper presents a framework for a robotic surgical assistant that…
Manipulability maximization in constrained inverse kinematics of surgical robots
Jacinto Colan, Ana Davila, Yasuhisa Hasegawa
In robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RMIS), inverse kinematics (IK) must satisfy a remote center of motion (RCM) constraint to prevent tissue damage at the incision point.…
Task segmentation based on transition state clustering for surgical robot assistance
Yutaro Yamada, Jacinto Colan, Ana Davila +1
Understanding surgical tasks represents an important challenge for autonomy in surgical robotic systems. To achieve this, we propose an online task segmentation framework that uses…
Constrained Motion Planning for a Robotic Endoscope Holder based on Hierarchical Quadratic Programming
Jacinto Colan, Ana Davila, Yasuhisa Hasegawa
Minimally Invasive Surgeries (MIS) are challenging for surgeons due to the limited field of view and constrained range of motion imposed by narrow access ports. These challenges ca…
Cutaneous Feedback Interface for Teleoperated In-Hand Manipulation
Yaonan Zhu, Jacinto Colan, Tadayoshi Aoyama +1
In-hand pivoting is one of the important manipulation skills that leverage robot grippers' extrinsic dexterity to perform repositioning tasks to compensate for environmental uncert…
