Surgical Robotics: Quanser Introduces Haptics to Telesurgery

In this Digital Journal special investigation, they interview leaders of advanced robotic technology who are adding a realistic sense of touch to surgical robotic tools. Quanser reps, Michael Armata and Paul Gilbert, demonstrate the efficacy of robot arms designed to improve techniques for minimally-invasive surgery. Plus, they show their "Rehab Robot," a tool to help stroke victims regain their fine motor skills. Digital Journal toured the Markham, Ont., Quanser headquarters to see how haptic augmented robotic surgery can supplement the skills of human surgeons. DigitalJournal http://www.digitaljournal.com/,
