An Adapter for endoscope to increase the dexterity of the surgeon
Adviser: Prof Gastone Ciuti
Once the endoscope is inside the lumen, the possibilities for surgical interventions are severely limited. The project focuses on optimizing the design of an adapter for an endoscope.
We are trying to optimize (genetic algorithm ) the design of the adapter for an endoscope that will increase the dexterity for the surgeon. More Degrees of Freedom (DoF) means better maneuverability, especially in endoluminal surgery.
