The disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for a surgical tool or a surgical robotic system. An example computer-implemented method for evaluating calibrations of a surgical tool includes fixating a joint of the surgical tool at a first angle, the joint being driven by an actuator, measuring an actuator position corresponding to the first angle, accessing a calibrated offset corresponding to the first angle, determining an expected joint angle based on the measured actuator position and the calibrated offset, and reporting a first difference between the expected joint angle and the first angle.

Visual annotations in robot control interfaces

Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for visually annotating rendered multi-dimensional representations of robot environments. In various implementations, an entity may be identified that is present with a telepresence robot in an environment. A measure of potential interest of a user in the entity may be calculated based on a record of one or more interactions between the user and one or more computing devices. In some implementations, the one or more interactions may be for purposes other than directly operating the telepresence robot. In various implementations, a multi-dimensional representation of the environment may be rendered as part of a graphical user interface operable by the user to control the telepresence robot. In various implementations, a visual annotation may be selectively rendered within the multi-dimensional representation of the environment in association with the entity based on the measure of potential interest.
