Abstract
Current surgical robots give surgeons the ability to precisely and delicately manipulate tissue without requiring large incisions into the body. The robots themselves are large and costly, however, which limit their use. We discuss some of the engineering underpinnings that cause these robotic systems to be large, and talk through strategies for overcoming these limitations.
