The research platform for magnetically controlled medical robots mainly consists of multi-axis electromagnetic coils, optical and electromagnetic positioning system, various types of microscopes, and multi-axis precise force/torque sensors. This platform can be used for experimental investigation of magnetic actuation and manipulation of various minimally invasive medical robots including flexible transluminal robots, capsule endoscopes, and micro/nano robots (swarms). The research by this platform is aimed at enabling dexterous manipulation and autonomous navigation of minimally invasive medical robots inside the human body.
