More Information
Summary:The present disclosure concerns an articulated positioning system for positioning a scientific tool in predetermined position and orientation with respect to a head of a subject, the articulated positioning system comprising: a spherical robot arm assembly defining an arm displacement sphere, the spherical robot arm assembly comprising: a proximal arm segment comprising a base-mounting end portion connectable to a support structure and an opposed distal segment-mounting end portion, the proximal arm segment forming a proximal arc of the arm displacement sphere; and a distal arm segment comprising a proximal segment-mounting end portion pivotally mounted to the distal segment-mounting end portion about an arm segment connection axis and an opposed tool-holding end portion, the distal arm segment forming a distal arc of the arm displacement sphere. It also concerns a corresponding robotized positioning assembly and a corresponding method for positioning the tool in the predetermined position and orientation.
