METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FACILITATING REMOTE PRESENTATION OR INTERACTION
A facilitation system for facilitating remote presentation of a physical world includes a first object and an operating environment of the first object. The facilitation system includes a processing system configured to obtain an image frame depicting the physical world, identify a depiction of the first object in the image frame, and obtain a first spatial registration registering an object model with the first object in the physical world. The object model is of the first object. The processing system is further configured to obtain an updated object model corresponding to the object model updated with a current state of the first object, and generate a hybrid frame using the image frame, the first spatial registration, and the updated object model. The hybrid frame includes the image frame with the depiction of the first object replaced by a depiction of the updated object model.
Dynamic control of surgical instruments in a surgical system using repulsion/attraction modes
A robot-assisted surgical system has a user interface operable by a user, a first robotic manipulator having a first surgical instrument, and a second robotic manipulator having a second surgical instrument. The system receives user input in response to movement of the input device by a user and causes the manipulator to move the first surgical instrument in response to the user input, determines a vector defined by the position of the first surgical instrument relative to the second surgical instrument, generates dynamic control signals based on the determined vector, and causes the manipulator to move the second surgical instrument in response to said dynamic control signals.
Augmented reality glasses with auto coregistration of invisible field on visible reality
Augmented reality glasses with auto coregistration of an invisible field on visible reality which allows eyes to recognize a real space and precisely performs coregistration on only diagnosis and treatment information of invisible light, which is emitted from a specific area, to the real space.
METHODS FOR ACTIVELY ENGAGING AND DISENGAGING TELEOPERATION OF A SURGICAL ROBOTIC SYSTEM
A method for engaging and disengaging a surgical instrument of a surgical robotic system including receiving a sequence of user inputs from one or more user interface devices of the surgical robotic system; determining, by one or more processors communicatively coupled to the user interface devices and the surgical instrument, whether the sequence of user inputs indicates an intentional engagement or disengagement of a teleoperation mode in which the surgical instrument is controlled by user inputs received from the user interface devices; in response to determining of engagement, transition the surgical robotic system into the teleoperation mode; and in response to determining of disengagement, transition the surgical robotic system out of the teleoperation mode such that the user interface devices are prevented from controlling the surgical instrument.
Methods for actively engaging and disengaging teleoperation of a surgical robotic system
A method for engaging and disengaging a surgical instrument of a surgical robotic system including receiving a sequence of user inputs from one or more user interface devices of the surgical robotic system; determining, by one or more processors communicatively coupled to the user interface devices and the surgical instrument, whether the sequence of user inputs indicates an intentional engagement or disengagement of a teleoperation mode in which the surgical instrument is controlled by user inputs received from the user interface devices; in response to determining of engagement, transition the surgical robotic system into the teleoperation mode; and in response to determining of disengagement, transition the surgical robotic system out of the teleoperation mode such that the user interface devices are prevented from controlling the surgical instrument.
Surgical light and uses thereof
Provided herein are surgical lighting devices, systems, and methods. In particular, provided herein are sterile surgical lights and uses thereof.
Unmatching/matching UID to robot grasper for engaging teleoperation
A surgical robotic system has a robotic grasper, a user interface device (UID), and one or more processors communicatively coupled to the UID and the robotic grasper. The system detects a directive to engage or re-engage a teleoperation mode, determines that the system is in a non-teleoperation mode, receives a sequence of user actions through the UID, determines the UID matches a jaw angle or a grip force of the robotic grasper, and transitions into teleoperation mode. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
DETERMINING RELATIVE ROBOT BASE POSITIONS USING EXTERNALLY POSITIONED IMAGERS
A system for determining relative positions of subsystems of a robot-assisted surgical system includes a subsystem component including a plurality of manipulator arms and a surgeon console. Each subsystem component includes at least one of an optical tracker and a light emitter. Image data from the optical trackers is analyzed to determine the relative positions of the subsystems.
EXTENDED REALITY SYSTEMS FOR VISUALIZING AND CONTROLLING OPERATING ROOM EQUIPMENT
A camera tracking system receives patient reference tracking information indicating pose of a patient reference array tracked by a patient tracking camera relative to a patient reference frame. A local XR headset view pose transform is determined between a local XR headset reference frame and the patient reference frame. Remote reference tracking information is received indicating pose of a remote reference array tracked by a remote reference tracking camera. A remote XR headset view pose transform is determined between a remote XR headset reference frame of a remote XR headset and the remote reference array. A 3D computer image is transformed from a local pose determined using the local XR headset view pose transform to a remote pose determined using the remote XR headset view pose transform. The transformed 3D computer image is provided to the remote XR headset for display with the remote pose relative to the remote XR headset reference frame.
Augmented reality display systems for fitting, sizing, trialing and balancing of virtual implant components on the physical joint of the patient
Devices and methods for performing a surgical step or surgical procedure with visual guidance using an optical head mounted display are disclosed.
