Endorobotics: Design, R&D and Future Trends addresses the need for endorobots describing the medical requirements and applications. The book consists of three parts. The first part provides a state of the art of robots for endoscopy (endorobots) including devices already available in the market and others still at R&D stage. The second part focusses on the engineering design; it includes the use of polymers for soft robotics, comparing the advantages and limitations with their rigid counterpart. It also details how nature can inspire such design. The third part includes the project management of a multidisciplinary team, the health cost of current technology, and how a cost-effective device can have a substantial impact on the market. It also includes information on the medical regulation and product commercialization, all steps needed to make new technology available. A case of study is presented at the end of each section to demonstrate how the discussed topic can be implemented in a real scenario.
