SoKoRoMed
Soft and continuum robotics for medical applications
The project aims to establish defined process chains for the manufacture of patient- or application-specific soft end-effectors. To this end, new materials, suitable computational methods and a tailored 3D printing technique are being developed. The soft and continuum robots (SKR) will be designed as part of the project and deployed in combination with conventional medical and robotic technology in a comprehensive clinical demonstrator for specific interventions. The definition of standards for system and functional specifications is intended to facilitate clinical translation.
Funding: Sächsische Aufbaubank – Förderbank (SAB), co-funded by the European Union
Project partner: Innovation Centre for Computer-Assisted Surgery (ICCAS) at the University of Leipzig
Project duration: 09/2024–06/2026
