Oriceps took first place in the Mechanisms Design Competition at the International Design Engineering Technical Conference in Portland, Oregon. (August 2013)
Functional prototypes created to test the mechanical advantage of the mechanism with changing geometry.
Early functional prototypes to explore the possibilities of different configurations.
Simple one degree of freedom actuation method for Oriceps.
The Oriceps design lends itself to scalability, thus making it a great contender for minimally invasive surgical applications.
