Abstract
Teleoperated robotic surgical systems have been commercially developed and shown to be effective yet their adoption into standard practice has been limited up to the present for reasons which may include size, complexity, and cost. In the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Hawaii, we have developed a new prototype teleoperated robotic system for minimally invasive surgery (MIS) which is simple, compact, and easy to set up and use.
