Autonomous Navigation for Robot-Assisted Intraluminal and Endovascular Procedures: A Systematic Review

Increased demand for less invasive procedures has accelerated the adoption of Intraluminal Procedures (IP) and Endovascular Interventions (EI) performed through body lumens and vessels. As navigation through lumens and vessels is quite complex, interest grows to establish autonomous navigation techniques for IP and EI for reaching the target...

Artificial-Delay Adaptive Control for Under-actuated Euler-Lagrange Robotics

Artificial-delay control is a method in which state and input measurements collected at an immediate past time instant (i.e. artificially delayed) are used to compensate the uncertain dynamics affecting the system at the current time. This work formulates an artificial-delay control method with adaptive gains in the presence of nonlinear ...
