Application of hierarchical systems technology in conceptual design of biomechatronic system

Abstract

Application of cybernetic technology of conceptual design of biomechatronic surgical robotics system (SRS) originated by systems theory is suggested in the paper. Traditional models of artificial intelligence and mathematics do not allow describing biomechatronic systems being designed on all its levels in one common formal basis, i.e. they do not give connected descriptions of the systems structure, the system as dynamic unit in its environment and the environment construction. To avoid this drawback, the technology of hierarchical and dynamic systems was chosen as a theoretical means for conceptual design and control tasks performing. Furthermore, in comparison with traditional methods the proposed technology gives the description of connected electronic, mechanical, biological, human-machine and computer subsystems of biomechatronic object in common formal basis. Theoretical basis of the coordination technology is briefly considered first. The example of the technology realization in conceptual design of SRS is presented after that in the paper.
