Abstract: An endoscope manipulator for performing robot-assisted endoscope manipulation comprises a movable robot base with a hollow trunk and a vertical lifting joint; a passive joint set with one end mounted to an upper end of the vertical lifting joint, for manually setting an initial pose of the endoscope; an active joint set mounted to another end of the passive joint set, for adjusting pose control of the endoscope intra-operatively; and a compliant endoscope holder mountable to an end-effector of the active joint set, which passively changes to a compliant state upon an external force exceeding a threshold being applied to an endoscopic lens held by the compliant endoscope holder.

Abstract: A skeleton posture determining method and apparatus, and a computer readable storage medium belong to the field of human body posture recognition, where the method includes obtaining a first skeleton posture including location information of a plurality of joints, determining a description parameter of at least one target joint of the joints, obtaining, through screening, a correct joint from the at least one target joint based on the description parameter, and performing fitting based on location information of the correct joint to obtain a second skeleton posture, where the second skeleton posture includes location information of at least one joint, and the at least one target joint is in a one-to-one correspondence with the at least one joint. Hence, the method, the apparatus, and the computer readable storage medium can improve recognition accuracy of a human body posture.

The device includes a laser light source that delivers a laser beam; an aperture disc including at least two pinholes, the laser beam being filtered by the pinholes so that a reference wave and an object wave are generated; a sample having a first area containing an object to be imaged and a second area without any object, in which the first area and the second area are illuminated by the object wave and the reference wave respectively; and an image sensor that captures an off-axis hologram for reconstructing an image of the object, in which the reference wave and the object wave are interfered on the image sensor and the hologram is captured based on an interference pattern of the reference wave and the object wave.

Abstract: A compliant safe joint and manufacturing method thereof. The compliant safe joint includes an input axis circumferentially connected to a motor shaft of a DC motor; a movable bridge circumferentially mounted on the input axis and slidable along a axial direction of the input axis; multiple bearings, each of the multiple bearings having an inner ring fixed to the movable bridge and having an outer ring; a stationary bridge rotatably mounted on the movable bridge and having a helicoid surface, the outer ring of each bearing being movable along the helicoid surface; and a flexible component connected to the movable bridge. The stationary bridge rotates about the input axis when a torque which exceeds a predetermined threshold is applied to the stationary bridge by the motor shaft, such that the bearings move with respect to the helicoid surface to cause the flexible component to be compressed and extended through the movable bridge.
