is currently developing under a collaboration with a pharmaceutical company, manufacturing company and a Kyushu University originated startup company - Megwel.
Surgical Robot Design based on Compliant Mechanism
is studied based on Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to provide the design criteria for the implementation of surgical robots with largely deformable elements in motion.
was integrated by many research organizations including our lab that provided the robotic forceps. This work was funded by ImPACT Program of Council for Science, Technology and Innovation (Cabinet Office, Government of Japan).
