Abstract

Even though the introduced robust real-time robot/camera calibration (Chap. 4 contributes to the system’s usability during system start and system safety, it cannot solve all the deficits of the current robotized Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) system. As shown during the practical evaluation of the robotized TMS system (Sect. 3.3), target accessibility, coil positioning on the head and general system safety are still open deficits of the current system implementation.
