Within the past twenty years, the field of robotics has been finding many areas of applications ranging from space to underwater explo rations. One of these areas which is slowly gaining popularity among the users group is the notion of service robotics. This book is an in vestigation and exploration of engineering principles in the design and development of mechanisms and robotic devices that can be used in the field of surgery. Specifically the results of this book can be used for designing tools for class of Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS). Generally, Minimal Invasive Surgery (MIS), e. g. laparoscopic surgery, is performed by using long surgical tools, that are inserted through small inc...
This book examines the signal processing perspective in haptic teleoperation systems. This text covers the topics of prediction, estimation, architecture, data compression and error correction that can be applied to haptic teleoperation systems. The authors begin with an overview of haptic teleoperation systems, then look at a Bayesian approach to haptic teleoperation systems. They move onto a discussion of haptic data compression, haptic data digitization and forward error correction.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Physiological Computing Systems, PhyCS 2016, held in Lisbon, Portugal, in July 2016. The 12 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. They contribute to the understanding of relevant trends of current research on physiological computing systems, including brain-computer interfaces, virtual reality, psychophysiological load assessment in unconstrained scenarios, body tracking and movement pattern recognition, emotion recognition, machine learning applied to diabetes and hypertension, tangible biofeedback technologies, multimodal sensor data fusion, and deep learning for hand gesture recognition.
Magical describes conditions that are outside our understanding of cause and effect. Even in modern societies, magic-based explanations are powerful because, given the complexity of the universe, there are so many opportunities to use them. The history of medicine is defined by progress in understanding the human body - from magical explanations to measurable results. To continue medical progress, physicians and scientists must openly question traditional models. For thirteen years, MMVR has been an incubator for technologies that create new medical understanding via the simulation, visualization, and extension of reality. Researchers create imaginary patients because they offer a more reliable and controllable experience to the novice surgeon. With imaging tools, reality is purposefully distorted to reveal to the clinician what the eye alone cannot see. Robotics and intelligence networks allow the healer's sight, hearing, touch, and judgment to be extended across distance, as if by magic. The moments when scientific truth is suddenly revealed after lengthy observation, experimentation, and measurement is the real magic. These moments are not miraculous, however. book.
The remarkable accomplishments of the IT industry and the Internet are trickling steadily into healthcare. This series provides more effective healthcare at a lower overall cost, driven by cheaper and better computers.
