Research
Intelligent Mechanical Systems
There is a need for products that can automatically adapt to various environmental and working conditions. Since a standard theoretical framework for designing such adaptable products is not yet established, only few rules, generalized methods, software tools, and guidelines for design for adaptability can be found in literature. The goal of this paper is to address issues associated with designing adaptable product.

PhD thesis: TrEndo Tracking System. Motion Analysis in Minimally Invasive Surgery
Minimally invasive surgery (e.g. laparoscopy) requires special surgical skills. Training of basic laparoscopic skills can be applied in box trainers, virtual reality (VR) trainers, animal experiments, and in patients. In all configurations, objective assessment of a trainee’s skills remains a challenge. It has been shown that motion analysis is a valuable assessment tool of basic surgical skills in laparoscopy. However, to use motion analysis as the assessment tool, it is necessary to track and record the motions of laparoscopic instruments.
The aim of this study is to develop a simple and low-cost device that allows free manipulation of a standard laparoscopic instrument either in a box trainer or a VR trainer, and that tracks its movements.
A novel, four degrees of freedom, low-cost device for tracking laparoscopic instruments in training setups was developed. This device - TrEndo (Tr - tracking, Endo - endoscopy) - consists of a gimbal mechanism with three optical computer mouse sensors. The gimbal guides the laparoscopic instrument, while optical sensors measure the movements of the instrument.
