MICA - Actuated and sensorized surgical instruments
The DLR MICA is the second generation of DLR versatile instruments for minimally invasive surgery. MICA is a 3 degrees of freedom robot, which – in the MiroSurge system – represents additional joints of the lightweight telemanipulator MIRO. In the present configuration MICA is comprised of a drive unit, wrist, gripper and force/torque sensor, providing dexterity and force feedback for delicate surgical procedures.
