Research
The focus is innovative devices for clinical application and healthcare. New approaches are used to derive information rather than data on state concerning patient or human motion, tissues or cells.Robotics for Microsurgery: Tools that can self-reference to tissue and target position are essential at the micro-scale. One of the important aspects studied is how to discriminate different behaviours in the tool-tissue interaction. See for example: Surgical microdrill, Flexible Digit, Steerable Lumen Digit
Cell Processing: The research is producing new techniques for measuring and manipulating cells and small tissues. See for example Spermatogenic Cell Separation
Sensing Human behaviour: Smart devices are being investigated to discriminate moving objects and human state and motion. See for example Human Movement, Muscle Fatigue
