Design of a 4-DoF (degree of freedom) hybrid-haptic device for laparoscopic surgery

<p>This paper presents a novel kinematics architecture with 4 DoFs (degrees of freedom) intended to be used as a haptic interface for laparoscopic surgery. The proposed architecture is a result of an association of serial and parallel kinematics chains, with each one handling a part of the who...
