TL;DR: While the components of the MiroSurge system are shown to fulfil the rigid design requirements for robotic telesurgery with force feedback, the system remains versatile, which is supposed to be a key issue for the further development and optimisation.

TL;DR: A humanoid two-arm system developed as a research platform for studying dexterous two-handed manipulation based on the modular DLR-Lightweight-Robot-III and theDLR-Hand-II and an overview of the different sub-systems is presented.

TL;DR: The DLR MIRO robot focuses on compact, slim and lightweight design to assist the surgeon directly at the operating table without interference, and integrates torque‐sensing capabilities to enable close interaction with human beings.

TL;DR: This video gives an overview of the mobile humanoid robotic system “Rollin' Justin” with special emphasis on mechanical design features, control issues and high-level system capabilities such as human robot interaction.

TL;DR: This paper presents a novel system for accurate placement of pedicle screws that consists of a new light-weight (<10 kg), kinematically redundant, and fully torque controlled robot, which allows for a new intuitive man-machine-interface.
