The rigid and straight nature of conventional surgical drills and screwdrivers makes it difficult to access the posterior mandible for fracture reduction without the creation of facial incisions. To assist transoral mandibular fracture reduction in hard-to-reach areas, we propose a shared-control dexterous robotic system. The end effector of this system is an articulated drilling/screwing tool to ...
