The Hamlyn Centre joined the European Robotics Research Infrastructures Network (TERRINet) since December 2017 and recently updated its profile.

In the beginning of this month, we updated our Hamlyn robotics facility details on TERRINet. The facility at the Hamlyn Centre for Robotics Surgery consists of state-of-the-art robotic platforms and manufacturing/characterisation devices for the development and construction of the next generation of robotic devices.

The Hamlyn Centre joined the European Robotics Research Infrastructures Network (TERRINet) project since December 2017. The TERRINet project funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme aims at integrating the current existing Robotics facilities across Europe and building a world-class network with harmonised services and complementary capabilities where talented researchers from academia and industry worldwide will have access and will be able to explore new ideas and establish personal and joint projects.

By participating in the (TERRINet) project, the Hamlyn Centre's robotics development facilities and infrastructure are available to institutions and research communities, both nationally and internationally.

The available platforms are as follows:

• Da Vinci Research Kit (DVRK)
• RAVEN II Surgical Robot
• Motion capture and virtual reality platform
• Operation room environment for medical robot prototype
• Micro-Robot Fabrication and Characterisation
• KUKA iiwa7 r800/iiwa14 r820 Platform
• Robotic Fast Prototyping Platform

The European Robotics Research Infrastructures Network (TERRINet) project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 730994.
