Using Brain Activation to Evaluate Arrangements Aiding Hand–Eye Coordination in Surgical Robot Systems

Goal: To realize intuitive, minimally invasive surgery, surgical robots are often controlled using master-slave systems. However, the surgical robot's structure often differs from that of the human body, so the arrangement between the monitor and master must reflect this physical difference. In this study, we validate the feasibility of an embodiment evaluation method that determines the arrangement between the monitor and master. In our...
