A radiolucent circumduction joint that has one, two, or three degrees of axis move movement about a central point that is able to mirror human joint movement.

Implementations relate to a master control device. In some implementations, a master control device includes a control body comprising a proximal end, a thumb grip portion, and a finger grip portion. The control body has a length configured to engage the proximal end of the control body in the palm of a hand of the user while the hand engages the thumb grip portion with a thumb of the hand and the finger grip portion with a finger of the hand. The control body is configured to allow the proximal end of the control body to be selectively engaged by the palm of the hand and selectively disengaged from the palm of the hand while the hand engages the thumb grip portion with the thumb of the hand and the finger grip portion with the finger of the hand.

A system for use in surgery includes a central body, a visualization system operably connected to the central body, a video rendering system, a head-mounted display for displaying images from the video rendering system, a sensor system, and a robotic device operably connected to the central body. The visualization system includes at least one camera and a pan system and/or a tilt system. The sensor system tracks the position and/or orientation in space of the head-mounted display relative to a reference point. The pan system and/or the tilt system are configured to adjust the field of view of the camera in response to information from the sensor system about changes in at least one of position and orientation in space of the head-mounted display relative to the reference point.

A surgical robotic system that includes a robotic arm, glove configured to be worn on a hand of a user and including a force-feedback mechanism, a tracking device, a processor, and memory. The memory includes instructions which when executed by the processor causes the system to determine that the user is performing a hand gesture with the glove to grasp a virtual user input device (UID) based on the tracking device, and in response to the user grasping the virtual UID, apply, via the force-feedback mechanism, a force upon the glove that corresponds to a physical representation of the virtual UID, and engage the robotic arm to be controlled by the virtual UID.

A guiding apparatus comprises a plurality of support members. Each of the plurality of support members has a curved profile to resist bending in at least one direction. The guiding apparatus also comprises a retraction system coupled to the plurality of support members. The plurality of support members has an extended configuration in which the plurality of support members is positioned in an arrangement to form a channel sized to receive an instrument. The plurality of support members has a retracted configuration in which each of the plurality of support members is retracted within the retraction system as the instrument is advanced along a longitudinal axis.
