    Abstract: A system with coupled control modes includes a first manipulator, a second manipulator, an input device for commanding movement of the first manipulator or the second manipulator, and one or more controllers. The one or more controllers are configured to detect movement of the input device; when movement of the first manipulator is responsive to movement of the input device: determine a commanded movement for the first manipulator from the detected movement of the input device and command the second manipulator to move in response, at least in part, to the commanded movement of the first manipulator; and when movement of the second manipulator is responsive to the movement of the input device: determine a commanded movement for the second manipulator from the detected movement of the input device and command the first manipulator to move in response, at least in part, to the commanded movement of the second manipulator.

    Abstract: In a coupled control mode, an operator directly controls movement of an associated manipulator with an input device while indirectly controlling movement of one or more non-associated manipulators, in response to commanded motion of the directly controlled manipulator, to achieve a secondary objective. By automatically performing secondary tasks through coupled control modes, the system's usability is enhanced by reducing the operator's need to switch to another direct mode to manually achieve the desired secondary objective. Thus, coupled control modes allow the operator to better focus on performing tasks and to pay less attention to managing the system.
