Core Insights - The research team from Zhejiang University has clarified the "mechanical transmission mechanism based on live knots" and innovatively proposed live knot intelligent sutures, successfully applied in surgical suturing, with potential implications for other robotic and intelligent structure designs [1][2] Group 1: Research and Development - The team has been working for three years across multiple disciplines to address the challenge of tactile feedback in robotic-assisted surgeries, particularly during suturing and knot tying [1] - The innovative live knot allows for precise control of the "dead knot," which is crucial for the success of surgical procedures [1] - The collaboration involved experts from mechanics, medicine, mathematics, materials, machinery, and control, leading to thousands of design iterations to develop the "mechanical transmission mechanism based on live knots" [1] Group 2: Future Applications - The research team is currently building a force value database for different tissues and developing high-precision suturing products for robotic surgeries in fields such as gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and neurosurgery [2]
