- This paper introduces local magnetic actuation as an innovative approach for use in robotic surgical instruments, providing far increased dexterity whilst achieving a compact footprint. The approach reports on patented technology (US9579163, US9737364), and was pivotal to a successful NSF grant (1453129, $452k). Furthermore, it led to the design of new surgical instruments (see, for example, 10.1115/1.4028658, 10.1109/TMECH.2017.2764465, 10.1109/LRA.2018.2854921). The research also enabled establishment of new collaborations with the Universities of Melbourne and Milan, and the paper received the OLYMPUS Best Paper Award ($3,000) at the 16th Conference of the International Society for Computer Aided Surgery.
