33987 Machine learning artificial intelligence guided management robotic articulated arm laser

Abstract

This presentation will detail the study of a novel machine learning artificial intelligence guided robotic articulating arm for lasers and energy-based devices. It will consist predominantly of a preclinical stage and clinical phase. The preclinical phase involves the developing of the robotic articulated arm that can fully support a laser handpiece, specifically the 595-nm pulsed dye laser handpiece. This robotic articulating arm can demonstrate several key milestones and will then progress to a clinical study with patients. The key milestones are as follows; ability to articulate in multiple dimensions, ability to articulate across a surface of 1 m, ability to carry payload of handpiece weight, and ability to successfully articulate handpiece in appropriate direction geospatially. Once this preclinical phase of the study is completed it will move into a clinical phase where patients with easily identifiable highly targetable chromophores will be treated for specific use cases. As lasers and energy based devices become more powerful the need for robotics and artificial intelligence to play a role in their further development will become paramount to our specialty in furthering the future of development and devices. With advances in robotics and artificial intelligence, maintaining and protecting our patients and our specialty is becoming increasingly important.
