Abstract

The first demonstration of a pneumatic soft continuum robot is integrated in series with a rigid robot arm, safely performing teleoperated diathermic tissue-cutting. The rigid arm autonomously maintains a safe tool contact force, while the soft arm manually follows the desired cutting path. Ex-vivo experimentation demonstrates submillimetric deviations from target paths.
