Neural Network-Based Active Load-Sensing Scheme and Stiffness Adjustment for Pneumatic Soft Actuators for Minimally Invasive Surgery Support
To provide a stable surgical view in Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS), it is necessary for a flexible endoscope applied in MIS to have adjustable stiffness to resist different external loads from surrounding organs and tissues. Pneumatic soft actuators are expected to fulfill this role, since they c...
