Review of comanipulation robot in surgery

Abstract

Interaction of human and robot (HRI) is the main problem that impacts the development of robot, especially the surgery robot. Comanipulation is a prime solution, with the novel feature of high backdrivability, high precision because of active constrain control. This paper introduces several comanipulation robots in surgery and summarizes the characteristics of each robot. The challenges and opportunities of comanipulation robots in the future are concluded.
