[0032] System Design and Analysis

[0033] A. System design

[0034] refer to figure 2 , the robotic system 300 may include a robotic manipulator 305 having multiple (eg, six) degrees of freedom (DOF) and having an end effector 365 such as a dental drill, a tendon-sheath transfer system 310 configured to actuate at least the robotic manipulator 305 , a motor pack 315 having a plurality (eg, six) of motors for motion control, and a controller 320 coupled to the plurality of motors configured to control the motion of the robotic manipulator 305 for performing dental procedures. The robotic system 300 may be coupled to a dentist console 330, which includes an imaging system 371 / 372 connected to a stand 350, a stereoscopic display 335 connected to the stand 350, and a tactile feedback device 340 for remote operation.

[0035] Such as figure 2 As shown, the robotic manipulator 305 may include multiple robotic arms connected by multiple joints 3D printed with plastic filame...

Abstract

A robotic manipulator system (300) and method for performing dental operations are provided. The robotic manipulator system (300) includes a robotic manipulator (305) configured to perform dental operations; a plurality of motors (315); a tendon-sheath transmission system (310) configured to actuate at least the robotic manipulator (305); an imaging system (371, 372) configured to monitor the dental operations; and a control system (320) coupled to the plurality of motors (315) configured to control motions of the robotic manipulator (305) for performing the dental operations. The robotic manipulator system (300) can be employed for dental drilling procedures and has a dimension and workspace that are twice smaller than a conventional robotic dental drilling system.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 799,460, filed January 31, 2019, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety, including any tables, figures, or drawings. Background technique [0003] Dental problems are very common in daily life. If patients cannot receive proper treatment in time, they will be very serious and painful, affecting the quality of life and general health [4]. [0004] However, a global dental workforce shortage prevents most patients from being treated in a timely manner. Therefore, the application of robots to dental procedures has been proposed. Since most dental procedures rely entirely on the manual skills of the dentist, robots through controllable motion can not only improve the efficiency of dental procedures, but also improve treatment outcomes by preventing human errors [6]. [0005] Robots used in dentistry can generally be divided into ...
