Publisher’s Statement

The Publisher wishes to include a reference to Dr. Rajesh Kumar’s Ph.D. thesis, entitled “An Augmented Steady Hand System for Precise Micromanipulation,” Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore MD (April 2001), which describes a framework for task level control on the Steady Hand Robot at JHU and which reports demonstrations of several representative tasks, including retinal cannulation, on dry lab and ex-vivo phantoms. The Publisher also refers to Figure 5 of the Article and wishes to reference the depiction of retinal cannulation in Dr. Kumar’s thesis, which reflects a task sequence that was performed for Dr. Kumar’s thesis and is depicted in the thesis as Figure 5.13.
