In Silico Investigation of a Surgical Interface for Remote Control of Modular Miniature Robots in Minimally Invasive Surgery

Figure 3

The intra-abdominal environment was simulated by simple 3D structures representing the intestine, the liver, and the gallbladder. On the lower left corner of the figure, the mini-robot’s onboard camera views are shown. The gallbladder is suspended by a grasper like mini-robot (refer to [15]).
