Abstract

This paper presents the experimental implementation of a teleoperated endoscopic surgical manipulator system that uses PHANTOM Omni haptic device as the master. The 4-DOF, 2-PUU 2-PUS, endoscopic surgical parallel manipulator design is carried out using screw theory and Parallel virtual chain methodology to have larger bending angles and workspace volume. The master and slave devices of the teleoperation system are dissimilar in their kinematics and workspace volumes. A workspace mapping technique is implemented based on Position with Modied Rate Control to navigate through the slave workspace without annoying the user. To control the motion of the slave robot, a PID controller is used. The experimental results show the feasibility of the teleoperation surgical system using the 4-DOF parallel manipulator. Also, they indicate the efficiency of the implemented mapping technique and the designed controller to span the slave workspace with high dexterity and good tracking which allows the surgeon to perform the operation with high accuracy.
