However, the small and complex surgical area places high demands on the performance of the robot and the skill level of the doctor. In order to avoid the damage of other healthy organs with surgical instruments during the operation, a variable workspace of a continuum robot is designed in this paper. The information of the dynamic transformation of the surgical environment is used to continuously update the workspace of the continuum robot. For healthy vital organs, the workspace can actively shield its corresponding posture. Experiments have verified that for a variety of complex surgical scenarios, the variable workspace can simply and effectively implement the safety protection of healthy organs, and can avoid interference when multiple arms work together.","PeriodicalId":34110,"journal":{"name":"IET Cybersystems and Robotics","volume":"156 1","pages":"978-982"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76799833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the affine transformation model, the AGV running states, i.e., position, velocity and orientation are estimated by the global camera with the assistance of ArUco markers, which are pasted on the front side of the AGV. Besides, the first-person view camera is used to implement pedestrian detection and distance measurement based on the YOLOv3 model. It is noticeable that the pitch angle is considered for distance measurement, and an improved triangular model for distance measurement is proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been verified in our built platform.","PeriodicalId":34110,"journal":{"name":"IET Cybersystems and Robotics","volume":"18 1","pages":"99-104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85959099","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results: A total of 1542 international literatures are obtained. Researchers mainly focus on the pathological mechanisms and clinical treatment methods of different types of phantom limb pain. Furthermore, most authors prefer small-scale collaborative research. Most of academic achievements published by universities in Britain, Germany and the United States, and the United States is in a leading position in academic research. In addition, the classical and key literatures in the field of phantom limb pain mainly focus on the central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, cortical reorganization and other pathological mechanisms, as well as drug therapy and a variety of physical therapy.

Firstly, the desired trajectory is adjusted by impedance control in order to ensure the active compliance control of the robot-assisted bathing. Secondly, iterative learning control (ILC) is implemented to dynamically estimate the unknown model parameters, and reconstructed trajectory method is employed to ensure the convergence accuracy of iterative learning with any initial conditions. Thirdly, as for handling nonparametric uncertainties, external disturbances and the human-machine interaction (HMI) torque, adaptive sliding mode control (SMC) is proposed where the chattering problem in output torque is suppressed by adaptive method. Based on the composite energy function (CEF) method, the convergence of the double closed-loop system in the time domain and iterative domain is proved. Finally, through co-simulation of MATLAB and ADAMS, tracking errors of all joint angles can be maintained within 0.002rad with constant HMI force. The simulation results demonstrate that the IILSMC strategy is verified to be effective and superior.","PeriodicalId":34110,"journal":{"name":"IET Cybersystems and Robotics","volume":"58 1","pages":"1106-1111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85728446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, an integrated dual-probe design based on a common probe is proposed, and a single optical path lever is used for sensing, which can quickly switch imaging at the same target. A U-shape dual-probe structure was designed, and the single-optical path signal decoupling was realized by distinguishing the resonant frequencies of the dual-probes. The designed integrated dual-probe can perform different modifications on the tip to achieve rapid switching imaging of the same target with different functions, and is fully compatible with commercial AFMs without the limitations of systems and environments.","PeriodicalId":34110,"journal":{"name":"IET Cybersystems and Robotics","volume":"113 1","pages":"574-578"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79759096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
