This paper intended to conduct research based on medical robotics, which fundamentally couple information to enhance the performance of human abilities significantly, in this case, surgical interventions, rehabilitation, or simply helping differently-abled people perform daily tasks. This research work aims to comprehend principal concepts in medical robotic designing, analysis, and realtime control of robotic systems within the context of medical applications. Extensive research on telerobotic systems and their applications in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery/telesurgery is a major aspect of this research. The core aspects focus on the application, functionality, and theoretical aspects of interactive robotic technologies in medicine. Surgical, physiotherapy, and neurorehabilitative robotic systems are significant outlooks of medical robotics. Technological aspects, such as instrumentation, mechanisms, imaging, and simulation, were conducted using MATLAB and Webot software. Simulations using software usage was focused on designing robotic medical models and differentiated using functional classification. Three-dimensional robots with better dexterity and degree of freedom were simulated using Webot software. This research work proposes new approaches of augmented reality aiding medical surgeries whereby three-dimensional visualization of organs is detailed as the future of medical applications. Robotic Kinematics and algorithms are studied in detail when designing these robots on CAD/CAM. Comparative studies based on already implemented medical robots were also conducted. The functionality, drawbacks, ethical issues, and consents of patients are comprehended in detail in this research.

The brain damage could lead to the loss of the central nervous system, so a stroke patient may lose the function of dominating his/her body. The rehabilitation aims to maximize the potential to restore a patient who has an impairment. Traditional rehabilitation is to train a patient's muscles and joints under the guide of doctors to improve the strength of muscles and restore the motor function of joints. However, stroke patients are usually depressed, lonely and irritable, and they might easily generate negative emotions during a rehabilitation process. With a sole goal of helping patients restore their body functions from the physiology perspective, the traditional rehabilitation took little consideration on the impact of rehabilitation, which is reflected and measured from the perspective of emotions. Therefore, we suggest adding affective regulation to the stroke rehabilitation; in such a way, the patients' exercise could be completed with high intrinsic motivation, and the performance of the rehabilitation process can be enhanced. Two main contributions in the presented works are (1) the expanded emotional model to represent the status of stroke patients where the impact of psychological factors can be taken into consideration, (2) the quantifiable measurement of rehabilitation performance as well as the corresponding design of experiments (DoE) to verify the positive impact of psychological adjustment on human subjects. Note that due to the limited conditions, the experimental verification was performed on healthy college students. Since our work focused on modeling and quantification of psychological factors, it is reasonable to expend our work to other human subjects including stoke patients.
