Research projects

MARS Lab. is conducting research on medical robots with its expertise in the optimization of mechanisms, the design of mechatronic devices, the intrumentation of medical instrument and the motion capture of medical procedures.
Several medical applications have being addressed such as:
Neuro-endoscopy, Tele-echography, Craniotomy, Aneurism surgery
Liposuction surgery, Bone reduction surgery, Cervical surgery, etc. We are continuously looking for more medical applications to improve through mechanism and robotics.
While carrying its research, our laboratory is mainly supported by the National Science and Technology Council of Taiwan.
