摘要： A surgical robotic system is configured to determine access port length using an end effector of an instrument, which is inserted into a longitudinal tube of a surgical access port and calibrated at a first position. The end effector is then advanced to a second position, distal of the first position, within the longitudinal tube. Thereafter, a second calibration of the end effector is performed at the second position. During the second calibration, contact between the end effector and the longitudinal tube is monitored by a controller, which determines the length of the longitudinal tube based on the contact.

摘要： A surgical robotic system includes a robotic arm having a camera that is configured to output a video stream. The system also includes a surgical instrument coupled to the same or another robotic arm and a controller configured to receive the video stream from the camera and to calibrate the surgical instrument based on the video stream.

摘要： An end effector assembly of a surgical instrument includes a clevis defining a longitudinal axis and including first and second arms spaced-apart relative to one another and first and second jaw members supported by the clevis. At least one of the jaw members is movable relative to the other and the clevis between a spaced-apart position and an approximated position for grasping tissue between the jaw members. The clevis includes first and second locating features on outwardly-facings sides of the first and second spaced-apart arms, respectively. The first and second locating features are configured to facilitate engagement and alignment of the end effector assembly within a test fixture.

摘要： A surgical robotic system includes a robotic arm including a plurality of elongate members rotationally coupled to one another, a first activation button coupled to one of the elongate members, a first force sensor coupled to one of the elongate members, and a processor. One of the elongate members is configured to have a surgical instrument attached thereto. The first activation button is configured to actuate a function, and the first force sensor is configured to sense a force associated with an actuation of the first activation button. The processor is in communication with the first force sensor and is configured to determine whether an actuation of the first activation button is intentional or accidental based on data received from the first force sensor.
