Abstract
Bionic robots provide new avenues and possibilities for solving various engineering and scientific problems by mimicking the structure and functionality of biological organisms. Today's bionic robots can not only mimic the movement patterns of animals but also achieve more complex functions, such as entering the human body to diagnose symptoms.This paper introduces the importance of bionic robots in the field of medicine and their related applications. Firstly, the paper defines bionic robots and emphasizes their interdisciplinary nature, highlighting their role in driving innovation and development in medicine. It then analyzes the applications of two main types of bionic robots in medicine: multi-joint rigid-body bionic robots and soft-bodied bionic robots. Using examples such as the Da Vinci surgical robot and soft-bodied bionic robots, it details their principles, design characteristics, and application cases in medicine. The paper also discusses the advantages and limitations of these robots, such as the high precision and minimally invasive advantages of the Da Vinci surgical robot, but also the issues of high learning costs and expensive equipment. Finally, it introduces the frontier of rehabilitation robots, emphasizing their important role in helping patients recover. In conclusion, this review comprehensively elaborates on the basic theories and specific application cases of biomimetic robots in the medical field, providing important references for further research and application in this field.
