Hybrid robotic platform for skull surgery

This thesis documents the design and development of a prototype hybrid parallel serial manipulator that will maneuver the Hexapod to an optimum position for the surgery. This is to fully utilize the Hexapod’s accurate but limited workspace. The dissertation starts of with a general introduction to s...
