Abstract

Millions of patients suffering from eye disease cannot receive proper treatment due to the lack of qualified surgeons. Medical robots have the potential to solve this problem and consequently are attracting significant attention in the research community. This paper introduces a new 7-degree-of-freedom (DOF) 2-PRRRRR parallel robot with remote-center-of-motion for eye surgery. Mobility requirement, robot mechanism synthesis, kinematics, singularity, dimensional optimization for the prescribed workspace and highest dexterity, are presented, as well as detailed design and stiffness analysis. Results show the new robot has great potential for aiding the high precision eye surgical operations.
