    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a compliant mechanism (100) for application of radial resistance on a simulation endoscope (101). The mechanism (100) comprises a support plate (102), a ring member (103) rotatably mounted on the support plate (102) and a plurality of flexible beam assemblies (104) configured in an inner circumference of the ring member (103). The plurality of flexible beam assemblies (104) comprises a first beam (104a) connectable to the ring member (103) and a second beam (104b) connectable to the support plate (102), the circular motion of at least one of the support plate (102) and the ring member (103), relative to each other, moves the plurality of flexible beam assemblies (104) radially inward and radially outward to selectively apply radial resistance on the simulation endoscope (101). The complaint mechanism (100) of present disclosure are joint less mechanisms which are free from backlash and friction in joints.

    Abstract: In one example, a system for product designing includes a storage unit and an interaction system communicably coupled with the storage unit. The interaction system includes at least one processor and a memory. The interaction system operates by provisioning an access to a at least one user and receive a communication from the at least one user for designing a product. The interaction system receives a reply from the at least one user and facilitates interaction among the at least one user based on the reply received from the at least one user to create a group of users. The group of users are provided with at least one designing tool for designing the product.
