Stryker presented the team with the topic of a new “Smart SIP” device for a surgical robot. This interface plate has the function of maintaining a sterile barrier between the patient and the robot itself. This interface will be able to connect via Wi-Fi and can access information needed in real-time with a chrome browser. This will also be accessible through MATLAB. Stryker specifically asked Purdue students to produce a three-point loading system that can detect the various forces using the three ceramic bearings on the kinematic mounting scheme.
Semester of Project:
Spring 2021
Problem Statement/Summary:
Stryker is looking for a three-point load system that can detect forces using three ceramic bearings on a mounting device. This sterile interface plate should transmit data at a real-time rate to a Chrome browser using Bluetooth or wi-fi at a rate greater
