2023年春季先进机器人与人工智能系列学术讲座（第226期）

Seminar Series：Advanced Robotics & Artificial Intelligence

报告时间：2023年4月9日（周日）16:30-17:30  

报告地点：南开大学人工智能南楼124

报告嘉宾：Jun Liu   香港城市大学

报告题目：Multi-scale Automation and Robotic Systems for Advanced Healthcare

报告摘要：

    Advances in biology and medicine require enabling technologies for manipulation and characterization of tissues, single cells, and even sub-cellular structures. The past decade has witnessed a significant progress in the area of micro-robotics for biomedical applications such as single cell manipulation and minimally invasive surgery.

    This talk will introduce a new search and detection method for automatically locating end-effector tips; vision-based contact detection algorithms, and acoustic manipulation techniques. This talk will present microrobotic systems integrating these techniques as well as visual servo controls for high-throughput microinjection of cardiomyocytes in cardiovascular drug testing and for automated cryopreservation of oocytes and embryos in IVF clinics. Future research directions including AR-assisted surgery and personalized healthcare will also be discussed.
