Dr Lukas Lindenroth, Senior Lecturer in Medical Devices & Robotics au King’s College London
présentera un séminaire
Designing interactive medical devices with soft robotics
Jeudi 17 Septembre à 12h15
Salle 330, maison de la mécatronique, Annecy-le-Vieux.
Résumé :
Soft robotics is attracting growing interest across various disciplines in medicine. Unlike rigid systems, soft robots can be fabricated from compliant materials that naturally conform to human tissue, yet this inherent flexibility introduces significant challenges in defining reliable task-space control. In this talk, I will explore the different stages of soft medical robot development, from defining clinical requirements, through state-of-the-art fabrication techniques that enable tailored mechanical behaviour, to intrinsic sensing strategies that allow soft robots to perceive and respond to dynamic changes in the environment. I will then examine control methodologies that make soft robots deployable and reconfigurable for practical use in clinical settings, and discuss open challenges for the field.
