Abstract

Medical robot is under development in all around the world actively. In development of medical robot, needs of medical doctor is considered for potential solutions and good robots are created by seeds of engineering technology. Bio-inspired mechanism, such as robotic fish, becomes good seeds of technology. The author shows the developed surgical instruments and rehabilitation robots by bio-inspired mechanisms. Also, seamless design and manufacturing methods by 3D-CAD and 3D printer firstly in the world are mentioned. In the future, development of automated medical robot is integrated with IoT technology, however, it is significant to develop it as a medical support tool for medical doctors. Advanced medical robot and mechatronics are developed by considering easiness to be used for medical doctor and geniality to patients. Specially, bio-inspired mechanisms create new technologies for medical robot and mechatronics. The technology implements for not only university hospital and large hospital but also private hospital and clinic, which are facing day-to-day familiar medical field.
