One issue of robotic microsurgery is that compared to manual surgery, the operation time tends to be longer due to high motion scaling. To address this issue, we developed a new controller that can provide the accuracy required for microsurgery without a high scaling factor by utilizing fingertip and wrist motions. Also, for the better outcome of surgery, the proposed controller has a force feedba...
