Estimating Gripping Forces During Robot- Assisted Surgery Based on Motor Current

Accurate measurement of interaction forces during robot-assisted surgery requires compact force sensing modalities in the surgical tools, thus might add considerable cost to the setup. Measuring the motor current to estimate gripping forces, is an advantageous approach since no expensive force senso...
