Abstract
The precise construction of the master-slave control strategy is a fundamental requirement for robot-assisted surgery. In this study, we propose a master-slave control strategy for gastrointestinal surgical robots based on the natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery surgical robot developed by Tianjin University. The forward and inverse kinematics of the continuum mechanism at the slave manipulator are investigated. A master-slave coordinate mapping system for surgical robots is established by analyzing the kinematic characteristics of the master and slave manipulators. Additionally, an intuitive mapping algorithm and a control flowchart for the robot are developed. The proportional control and incremental control strategies tailored for natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery procedures are proposed based on intuitive mapping control. Finally, a master-slave trajectory tracking experiment is performed to validate the feasibility of the proposed master-slave control strategy.
