The trend of achieving minimal invasiveness in surgeries and recent technological
advances in robotics have resulted in the emergence of flexible surgical robots. Such …

Soft and continuum robots are transforming medical interventions thanks to their flexibility,
miniaturization, and multidirectional movement abilities. Although flexibility enables …

The cable‐driven continuum robot (CDCR) is a highly significant soft robot that exhibits a
lightweight structure, intrinsic safety properties, and a considerable degree of freedom; …

In this letter, we propose a novel 3D shape sensing algorithm for flexible endoscopic surgery
using multi-core fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. Considering the signal noises and …

This article presents a dexterous robotic system for autonomous debridement of osteolytic
bone lesions in confined spaces. The proposed system is distinguished from the state-of-the …

In this article, a deep learning method for the shape sensing of continuum robots based on
multicore fiber bragg grating (FBG) fiber is introduced. The proposed method, based on an …

This article presents the design, development, and motion control of a novel flexible robotic
laparoscope (FRL). The main structure of the FRL includes a two degrees-of-freedom …

This letter presents the development and experimental evaluation of an active steering hand-
held robotic system for milling and curved drilling in minimally invasive orthopaedic …

In this paper, we propose a novel shape-sensing method based on deep learning with a
multi-core optical fiber for the accurate shape-sensing of catheters and guidewires. Firstly …

In this article, we present a novel and generic data-driven method to servo-control the 3-D
shape of continuum and soft robots based on proprioceptive sensing feedback …
