About
Trevor Cotter is a researcher in the field of robotic haptic systems, with a focus on orthopedic simulation and surgical training. His most-cited work, "Design Synthesis of a Robotic Uniaxial Torque Device for Orthopedic Haptic Simulation" (2022, 3 citations), presents the design, development, and evaluation of a robotic uniaxial torque device that delivers realistic tactile feedback for orthopedic procedures. This contribution addresses a critical need in medical simulation: providing customizable, hardware-efficient haptic feedback that can be rapidly adapted for different surgical scenarios. Cotter’s research bridges mechanical design and human-computer interaction, aiming to improve the fidelity of surgical simulators and enhance training outcomes for orthopedic practitioners. While his citation count is modest, his work represents a foundational step in the synthesis of robotic haptic devices for specialized medical applications, demonstrating potential for broader impact as the field advances. Cotter’s focus on practical, evaluative design underscores his commitment to translating engineering principles into tangible tools for healthcare education.
