Description

Motivation:

▪ Combination of push/pull actuation & concentric tube technology

▪ Enhanced curvature, dexterity & flexibility of continuum manipulator

▪ Increased number of robot’s Degrees of Freedom (DoFs)

 

Goal - Contributions:

▪ A multi-arm system based on the combination of push/pull actuation & concentric tube technology

▪ Push/pull actuation for the navigation section

▪ Several arms as end-effectors/manipulation sections

▪ Less invasive interventions avoiding sensitive tissue
