Based on theexperience of HIT Hand and DLR Hand II, a smaller and easier manufactured dexterous robot hand withmultisen-sory function and high integration is jointly developed. The prototype of the hand issuccessfully built. It has 4 fingers in total 13-DOFs (degree of freedom). Each finger has 3-DOFsand 4 joints, the last 2 joints are mechanically coupled by means of four-bar linkage mechanism. Italso has an additional DOF to realize motion of the thumb relative to the palm. The fingertip forcecan reach up to 10 N. Full integration of mechanical body, actuation system, multisensory system andelectronics is a significant feature. DSP based control system is implemented in PCI busarchitecture and the serial communication between the hand and DSP needs only 2 lines.展开更多

It is illustrated to be able to restrain thedegenerate phenomenon effectively and improve the searching ability with high converging speed.展开更多

Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) is an optimal imaging modality which was applied in MIS in recent years. By combination of precise positioning to the target by intra-operative MRI guided surgery and dexterous motion by the robot, safe and smooth operation is expected to be performed. An overview of the MRI-guided robotic system for MIS is offered. The design of the intra-operative MR scanner system is described. The MR-compatible robotic system is carefully designed for safety and sterilization issues. This system unifies image information from open MRI, an optical endoscope and conventional vital-sign detectors. It helps and guides the surgeon and other medical staffs so they can make the right decisions. The high-performance manipulator can mimic the movement of the urgeon's hand precisely. And the analysis for active and passive interventional surgical instrument tracking is provided.展开更多

In this paper, a master slave method is proposed to control the motions of multiple mobile robots that cooperatively transport a common object from a start point to a goal point. A noholonomic kinematic model to constrain the motions of multiple mobile robots is built in order to achieve cooperative motions of them, and a “Dynamic Coordinator” strategy is used to deal with the collision avoidance of the master robot and slave robot individually. Simulation results show the robustness and effectiveness of the method.展开更多
