Abstract

In the present study, a solution to address the clinical need for stiffness display during manual and robotic minimally invasive surgery was postulated, developed, and assessed. To this end, a magneto-rheological elastomer-based stiffness display, MiTouch, was designed, developed, and analyzed. The mechanical properties of the MRE and system parameters were identified experimentally, based on which the force-field-stiffness response surface of the smart MRE was characterized. Based on the response surface, a stiffness controller was designed and verified for a set of performance requirements. A heartbeat simulation experiment showed the capability of the system for replicating desired tactile forces through stiffness control. Also, the system successfully attained an arbitrarily selected stiffness (4 N/mm) and maintained it within a bounded range (4.07 ± 0.41 N/mm). A comparison of the system performance with current literature validated its applicability for the proposed medical application.
