Towards an anthropomorphic design of minimally invasive instrumentation for soft tissue robotic surgery (2012)
Journal Article
Pipe, T., Tzemanaki, A., Dogramadzi, S., Pipe, A. G., & Melhuish, C. (2012). Towards an anthropomorphic design of minimally invasive instrumentation for soft tissue robotic surgery. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 7429 LNAI, 455-456. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-32527-4_56

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)
Journal Article
Rooney, T., Pipe, A. G., Dogramadzi, S., & Pearson, M. (2012). Towards tactile sensing applied to underwater autonomous vehicles for near shore survey and de-mining. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 7429 LNAI, 463-464. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-32527-4_60

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...
