In single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS), magnetic anchoring and guidance system (MAGS) is a promising technique to prevent clutter in the surgical workspace and provide a larger vision field. Existing camera designs mainly rely on rigid structure design, resulting in risks of losing magnetic coupling and impacting tissue during the insertion and coupling procedure. In this paper, we propose...
