Towards an anthropomorphic design of minimally invasive instrumentation for soft tissue robotic surgery (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Minimally invasive procedures, such as laparoscopy, have significantly decreased blood loss, postoperative morbidity and length of hospital stay. Robot-assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has offered refined accuracy and more ergonomic instrume...

Towards tactile sensing applied to underwater autonomous vehicles for near shore survey and de-mining (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Artificial tactile whisker sensors demonstrate an approach to localisation [1] that is robust to harsh environmental disturbances, endowing autonomous systems with the ability to operate effectively in confined, noisy and visually occluded spaces, su...

Semi-automatic percutaneous reduction of intra-articular joint fractures - An initial analysis (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Robot-assisted orthopaedic surgery has proved to provide better outcomes over conventional surgery in terms of improved spatial accuracy and more reliable and repeatable results. We present a novel use of robots in orthopaedic surgery - precise anato... Read More about Semi-automatic percutaneous reduction of intra-articular joint fractures - An initial analysis.
