Compressed Orientation Reachability Maps for Sub-Second Robotic Needle Entry Point Planning
Compressed Orientation Reachability Maps for Sub-Second Robotic Needle Entry Point Planning
This research presents an Orientation-Based Reachability Map (ORM) that enables sub-second robotic needle entry point planning for liver interventions. The ORM precomputes kinematic feasibility across 188,873 workspace positions and uses a JIT compiled runtime pipeline to achieve planning latencies of 0.289-0.349 seconds per target, significantly faster than existing methods which take 13.5-26.9 seconds. The approach maintains high geometric fidelity with mean convex hull and alpha-shape overlap ratios of 0.933 and 0.976 respectively.
This paper introduces an efficient method for robotic needle entry point planning in liver interventions, reducing planning latency from seconds to sub-second levels using a precomputed orientation reachability map.

arXiv:2610.39879v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In the context of multi-stage trajectory planning for robotic percutaneous liver interventions, identifying a kinematically feasible entry point remains a critical computational bottleneck. Existing methods rely on exhaustive inverse kinematics or randomized searches, incurring delays of 13 to 27 seconds per target and limiting real-time intraoperative adaptation. This
