A Telemanipulation System for Robot-Assisted Surgery With High-Quality Dynamic Haptic Feedback

Robot-assisted surgery (RAS) improves surgeon ergonomics but lacks haptic feedback, which is crucial for controlling gripping forces while interacting with tissue. We developed a telemanipulation system using a Cable-Driven Haptic Device (CDHD) and a Haptic User Interface (HUI) designed to ensure congruency between input and instrument movements, while providing high-quality dynamic haptic feedback to enhance surgical precision.
