Typically, the TMS procedure involves a physician placing a magnetic coil to stimulate a specific cortex. It is, however, important to compensate for any patient motion. Develop a motion compensation system using a UR robot to closely follow head movements tracked with help of an RGBD camera.Task accomplished: Solved and Implemented forward and inverse robot kinematics to compensate the head motion in Cartesian space using C++ and ROS.
