Journal ArticleDOI
A telerobotic assistant for laparoscopic surgery
Russell H. Taylor,Janez Funda,B. Eldridge,S. Gomory,K.G. Gruben,David Arthur Larose,Mark A. Talamini,Louis R. Kavoussi,James H. Anderson +8 more
TL;DR: A new generation of "intelligent" surgical systems that can work cooperatively with a human surgeon to off-load routine tasks, reduce the number of people needed in the operating room, and provide new capabilities that complement the surgeon's own skills are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constrained Cartesian motion control for teleoperated surgical robots
TL;DR: A method of formulating desired motions as sets of task goals in any number of coordinate frames (task frames) relevant to the task, optionally subject to additional linear constraints in each of the task frames is presented.
Patent
Method of constrained Cartesian control of robotic mechanisms with active and passive joints
Janez Funda,Russell H. Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method of controlling a robotic mechanism comprising both active and passive joints, where the motion of one or more of the passive joints is constrained by the environment, the mechanical construction of the mechanism or the nature of the task.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Control and evaluation of a 7-axis surgical robot for laparoscopy
TL;DR: This paper describes the control and ergonomic evaluation of a ceiling mounted (or support frame suspended) 7-axis surgical robot (HISAR) for laparoscopic camera navigation and the use of a previously reported constrained Cartesian controller is motivated and demonstrated.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A telerobotic system for augmentation of endoscopic surgery
TL;DR: A telerobotic system to replace a human camera operator in endoscopic surgical procedures, consisting of a remote center-of-motion manipulator holding the endoscope; a computer workstation supporting image processing, graphics, manipulator control, and other functions; and a variety of man-machine interlaces.
