Haptic virtual surgery simulation system under field programmable analogue array-based hybrid control.

ABSTRACT: In this paper, a bilateral haptic virtual surgery simulation system under a hybrid controller was studied. An analogue controller realized by a field programmable analogue array (FPAA) was paralleled in the operator robot side, which reduced the impact of controller discretisation on the system. A system stability conditions under hybrid control with multiple-operators were deduced. The stability analysis indicates that the addition of analogue derivative term widens the range of haptic controls gains that satisfy the multiple-users' stability conditions. Finally, the human's performance of a stiffness discrimination task was studied in an independently developed minimally invasive surgical (MIS) platform. The experiment results show that, human operators under the hybrid controller achieve the highest task success rates.

Project description:In this paper, a novel haptic feedback scheme, used for accurately positioning a 1DOF virtual wrist prosthesis through sensory substitution, is presented. The scheme employs a three-node tactor array and discretely and selectively modulates the stimulation frequency of each tactor to relay 11 discrete haptic stimuli to the user. Able-bodied participants were able to move the virtual wrist prosthesis via a surface electromyography based controller. The participants evaluated the feedback scheme without visual or audio feedback and relied solely on the haptic feedback alone to correctly position the hand. The scheme was evaluated through both normal (perpendicular) and shear (lateral) stimulations applied on the forearm. Normal stimulations were applied through a prototype device previously developed by the authors while shear stimulations were generated using an ubiquitous coin motor vibrotactor. Trials with no feedback served as a baseline to compare results within the study and to the literature. The results indicated that using normal and shear stimulations resulted in accurately positioning the virtual wrist, but were not significantly different. Using haptic feedback was substantially better than no feedback. The results found in this study are significant since the feedback scheme allows for using relatively few tactors to relay rich haptic information to the user and can be learned easily despite a relatively short amount of training. Additionally, the results are important for the haptic community since they contradict the common conception in the literature that normal stimulation is inferior to shear. From an ergonomic perspective normal stimulation has the potential to benefit upper limb amputees since it can operate at lower frequencies than shear-based vibrotactors while also generating less noise. Through further tuning of the novel haptic feedback scheme and normal stimulation device, a compact and comfortable sensory substitution device for upper limb amputees might be created.
