Abstract:Objective: Variable-view rigid scopes offer advantages compared to traditional angled laparoscopes for examining a diagnostic site. However, altering the scope’s view requires a high level of dexterity and understanding of spatial orientation. This requires an intuitive mechanism to allow an operator to easily understand the anatomical surroundings and smoothly adjust the scope’s focus during diagnosis. To address this challenge, the objective of this work is to develop a mechanized arm that assists in visuali… Show more
