TLDR
The designs of existing commercial RMIS systems are not conducive for force feedback, and creative solutions are needed to create compelling tactile feedback systems.
Abstract
Purpose of Review Robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RMIS) holds great promise for improving the accuracy and dexterity of a surgeon while minimizing trauma to the patient. However, widespread clinical success with RMIS has been marginal. It is hypothesized that the lack of haptic (force and tactile) feedback presented to the surgeon is a limiting factor. This review explains the technical challenges of creating haptic feedback for robot-assisted surgery and provides recent results that evaluate the effectiveness of haptic feedback in mock surgical tasks.

Quantitative three-dimensional imaging of surgical scenes

TL;DR: In this paper, an endoscope is provided, an image sensor array is disposed to image a field of view adjacent to the endoscope, each sensor includes a pixel array that is separate from the pixel arrays of other sensors; and a light source was disposed to illuminate the field-of-view.

Quasi-static modeling of the da Vinci instrument.

TL;DR: Two simplified quasi-static models for the da Vinci instrument are proposed which take into account distributed frictions and compliance of the tendons and suggest that a weighted combination of the outputs of the two models provides a sufficiently close estimate of the output torque of the daVinci instrument.
