Towards establishing a 'cooperation' measure for coupled movement in close-proximity human-robot interaction (2020)
Presentation / Conference
Camilleri, A., Hong, J., Dogramadzi, S., & Caleb-Solly, P. (2020, May). Towards establishing a 'cooperation' measure for coupled movement in close-proximity human-robot interaction. Presented at ICRA 2020

To achieve safe close-proximity human-robot interaction , particularly for physically assitive tasks, robot motion planning needs to recognize and adapt to the behaviour of humans in the long-term. Generally, motion prediction with probabilistic conf... Read More about Towards establishing a 'cooperation' measure for coupled movement in close-proximity human-robot interaction.

Real-time electromagnetic tracking of orthopaedic pins for robot-assisted fracture surgery (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Martins, B., Dagnino, G., & Dogramadzi, S. (2018, September). Real-time electromagnetic tracking of orthopaedic pins for robot-assisted fracture surgery. Presented at Computer and Robot Assisted Surgery (CRAS), London, England

Tracking devices are an essential component in image guided surgery particularly when precise treatment or implant positioning are required. In this paper we explore the use of an electromagnetic tracking device (Polaris Aurora, NDI Inc.) as an alter...

Design of a multi-DOF cable-driven mechanism of a miniature serial manipulator for robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Tzemanaki, A., Fracczak, L., Gillatt, D., Koupparis, A., Melhuish, C., Persad, R., …Dogramadzi, S. (2016, June). Design of a multi-DOF cable-driven mechanism of a miniature serial manipulator for robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. Presented at International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics, Singapore

While multi-fingered robotic hands have been developed for decades, none has been used for surgical operations. MicroAngelo is an anthropomorphic master-slave system for tele-operated robot-assisted surgery. As part of this system, this paper focuses...

Design and real-time control of a robotic system for fracture manipulation (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Dagnino, G., Georgilas, I., Tarassoli, P., Atkins, R., & Dogramadzi, S. (2015, August). Design and real-time control of a robotic system for fracture manipulation. Presented at International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, Milan, Italy

This paper presents the design, development and control of a new robotic system for fracture manipulation. The objective is to improve the precision, ergonomics and safety of the traditional surgical procedure to treat joint fractures. The achievemen...

Robot-assisted system for joint fracture surgery (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Georgilas, I., Dagnino, G., Tarassoli, P., Atkins, R., & Dogramadzi, S. (2015, June). Robot-assisted system for joint fracture surgery. Poster presented at Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery (CAOS) 2015, Vancouver

Incidence of fractures is steadily increasing and is expected that in 2025, Germany will have the largest number of fractures per year in Europe (≈928,000), followed by the UK (≈682,000) (Hernlund 2013). This work is concerned with distal-femur-fract... Read More about Robot-assisted system for joint fracture surgery.

Force-torque measurement system For fracture surgery (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Dagnino, G., Georgilas, I., Tarassoli, P., Atkins, R., & Dogramadzi, S. (2015, June). Force-torque measurement system For fracture surgery. Paper presented at Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery (CAOS) 2015, Vancouver

Many surgical procedures are now performed using the techniques of minimally invasive surgery (MIS), in which the surgeon manipulates instruments inserted into the patients through small incisions. In MIS, the surgeon has no direct contact with inter... Read More about Force-torque measurement system For fracture surgery.
