IEEE Spectrum recently reported about haptic feedback solutions for minimally invasive surgery proposed by world-leading research groups. The article mentions the work that the Centre for Robotics Research (CoRe) led by robotics expert Prof. Kaspar Althoefer at King’s College London has devised a system that tracks the probe’s spatial position, how deeply it indents the tissue, and the…
The IEEE Student Branch at King’s College was founded in 2001 and reshaped in 2012 as a more active branch. To celebrate the new academic year and welcome new students as well as get reacquainted with senior students, we are planning a social event on Tuesday 11th of November 6pm. Date: Tuesday 11th November, 18:00 Venue: Room K0.20, Strand Campus, King’s College…
This workshop aims to bring together medical experts active in the field of minimally invasive surgery and roboticists creating and studying soft and stiffness controllable robot devices. We will explore the synergies that will arise from robotic surgeons cooperating with such modern robots to conduct advanced surgical interventions previously not possible. This ICRA 2014 workshop…
