A Magnetic Continuum Device with Variable Stiffness for Minimally Invasive Surgery

Dario Floreano, Alice Tonazzini

One of the challenges of minimally invasive surgery is the dexterous manipulation and precise control of small diameter continuum surgical instruments. In this paper, a magnetic continuum device with variable stiffness (VS) is presented, whose tip can be p ...

Variable stiffness strip with strain sensing for wearable robotics

Dario Floreano, Stefano Mintchev, Jun Shintake, Vivek Ramachandran, Carine Rognon, Alice Tonazzini

Variable stiffness technologies help to solve the conflicting requirements of strength, comfort, and safety in soft exoskeletons. Here, we propose a modular variable stiffness strip based on layer jamming as a mechanical solution to constrain users' degree ...

STEERABLE CATHETER WITH PORTIONS OF DIFFERENT STIFFNESS

Dario Floreano, Alice Tonazzini

A steerable catheter (10) comprises portions (100, 105) of different stiffness, having a proximal end (11), a distal end, a lumen extending there between, at least one magnet (20) at the proximal end (11), at least a magnetic field to influence the proxima ...
