Abstract :
This paper presents a novel scheme to suppress the tremors in a surgeon´s hand during a micro-surgical operation. This method uses position sensing and feedback technique to compensate for the tremor and allows a surgeon to do all the operations himself while an assist system supports the hand and helps eliminate the effects of tremor on the surgical instrument.
