Abstract :

We offer a device for straight forward optical transmission imaging of biological tissues, which may be set on the robotic manipulator. The idea of our technology (product) is optical screening and imaging of highly scattering and/or absorbing thick media, including biological objects such as human palm and wrist, with spatial resolution and contrast adequate for imaging the bone and vascular structure, showing simple fractures, etc. We propose also the robot control algorithm, based on sliding mode strategy, which implemented in Lab View programming environment. The idea is to keep the trajectory of the system on a particular surface in the phase space. This will allow ensuring patient safety during procedure.
