Abstract

For decades, men have used robots to overcome their natural limitation in their dealing with the environment. In recent years, robots have been developed to assist surgeons in performing surgeries. Since these robots are meant for surgeons' use, the design and considerations for safety, reliability and human-robot interface become important One of the most common modes of controlling surgery robots is using a master and slave layout. This paper explores the latest development in the area of master-slave robotic system for surgery.
