Robots
• Accurate andare...
precise; Untiring
• Smaller or larger than people
(as needed)
• Remotely operated (as
needed)
• Connected to computers, which
gives them access to
information
• Not always able to operate autonomously
in highly complex, uncertain environments

More clinicians can perform
more difficult (and even
new) procedures; more
patients can be

Approaches include:
- Low force and speed
- Risk analysis (eliminate single

In an ideal world,
medical robotics
• includes:
Quantitive descriptions of patient state
• Use of models to plan intervention
• Design of devices, systems, and processes
to connect information to action ( =
robotics )
• Incorporating human input in a natural
way
• Goal: improve health and quality of life
