“…The heart tissue is simulated by an artificial plastisol‐based tissue made of soft plastic that is visible under ultrasound. This tissue is attached to a custom‐built mechanical cam which produces peak‐to‐peak amplitude of 9 mm and has a fundamental frequency of 64 bpm to simulate the beating heart motion which temporally matched to an ECG signal . These instruments are placed in a tank with water.…”
The results obtained show that the telerobotic system increases the success rate of anchor deployment by 100% and reduces the excess force application rate by 70% compared with manual attempts.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
