CoBRASurge (Compact Bevel-geared Robot for Advanced Surgery) is a novel surgical robot for positioning of tools during minimally invasive surgery. This robot uses a bevel-geared spherical mechanism to create mechanically remote center motion typical of incision-constrained surgery. Compared with the current commercially available da Vinci, it owns considerable advantages due to its compact size, portability, modular component, ease of use, and low cost.
Ad Hudler, a 1986 UNL grad, will give a book reading and sign copies of his newest book "Man of the House" at Lee Booksellers April 3 at 7:30 p.m.
Hudler is a stay-at-home dad, author and small-space landscaper who lives with his family in Fort Myers, Fla. His controversial, comic novels, printed in multiple languages, include "Househusband," "Southern Living," "All This Belongs to Me," and most recently, "Man of the House." Before writing fiction, Hudler was an award-winning writer fro metro newspapers and national magazines. He says of his books, "Most of my material is pure journalism, masquerading as fiction."
