Artificial tactile sensing in biomedical engineering
1 online resource (xiv, 242 pages) : illustrations.
"Comprehensive information on artificial tactile sensing design for minimally invasive surgery (MIS). This innovative guide focuses on the artificial sense of touch and its application in medicine and surgery. It explains the five natural senses in human beings and then explores the variety of tactile sensors and their potential for medicine.".
The four senses in humans : sight, hearing, smell, and taste -- The sense of touch -- Introduction to tactile sensing and tactile sensors -- Introduction to tactile sensing technologies -- Strain gauge sensors -- Piezoelectric sensors -- Application of tactile sensing in surgery -- Tactile image information -- Application and recent developments of tactile sensing in tumor detection -- Determination of mechanical properties of biological tissues including stiffness and hardness -- Application of tactile sensing in robotic surgery -- Haptics application in surgical simulation.
