  • Abstract
    A description is given of the mechanical structure of the SMOS and its components (control sensors, etc.). The results obtained with different modes of control (manual, referenced to sensors) show the help provided by SMOS to a human operator. Experimental data show that the SMOS has met the various challenges. Although it is slower than manual surgery, it is more accurate and safer
