intraOcular RoBotic Interventional System (iORBIS): Mechanical design for distally-actuated instrument insertion and automatic tool change

Published in Mechanism and Machine Theory, 2022

A novel parallelogram-based remote center-of-motion (RCM) mechanism for intraocular surgical robots, enabling distally-actuated instrument insertion and retraction to reduce volume and mass on the patient side.
