Workshop on Surgical Robotics

该奖项将支持为期三天的机器人手术应用研讨会，也将涵盖先进的传感器，实时计算和相关技术。讲习班将于1993年在华盛顿特区举行。讲习班的目标是：1)确定近年来在该领域取得的进展；2)确定进展的主要障碍，并确定克服这些障碍所需的研究；3)识别新兴技术创造的新研究机会。这个研讨会很重要，因为它所涉及的领域是一个新兴的领域，需要跨学科的研究来推进技术。与会者将包括研究人员、最终用户以及来自手术器械制造商、医院和监管机构的代表。将写一份报告，总结研讨会的结果。

This award will support a three day workshop on surgical applications of robotics, and also will cover advanced sensors, real-time computing, and related technologies. The workshop will be held in Washington, DC in 1993. The goals of the workshop are: 1) to identify the progress made in the field in recent years; 2) to identify the major obstacles to progress and determine the research required to overcome the obstacles; and 3) to identify new research opportunities created by emerging technologies. This workshop is important since the area that will be covered is an emerging one that requires interdisciplinary research to advance technology. The participants will include researchers, end users, and representatives from surgical device manufacturers, hospitals, and regulatory agencies. A report will be written that will summarize the results of the workshop.
