Abstract:
Objective:To explore the evaluation method for key performance indicators of autonomous ultrasound scanning robots,so as to establish a testing scheme and conduct experiments.Methods:Based on the working principle of autonomous ultrasound scanning robots,three key performance indicators,which included scanning speed,scanning contact force,and accuracy of online adjustment,were established.The speed of the robotic arm,which execute autonomous scanning,was tested through laser rangefinders and a design of process equipment for displacement.The contact force of autonomous scanning was monitored and evaluated using a combination of ultrasound phantom and sensor with six-dimensional force.The displacement differences of phantom and robotic arm were monitored to evaluate the accuracy of online adjustment through designed a synchronization detection device for the displacements of phantom and robotic arm.Results:This research designed and provided test method and test device,which realized successful measurements for the speed,contact force,and accuracy of online adjustment in autonomous scanning of the ultrasonic scanning robot.Conclusion:The speed,contact force,and accuracy of online adjustment in scanning can be used as evaluation indicators of systematic performance of autonomous ultrasound scanning robots.The feasibility of these indicators is demonstrated through designed evaluation methods and corresponding experiments.
