Abstract: An accelerometer is included within the confined space and limited volume of a distal portion of a surgical instrument. The surgical instrument includes an end component, a joint coupled to the end component, a shaft coupled to the joint, and a force transducer and accelerometer apparatus. The force transducer and accelerometer apparatus is coupled between the joint and the shaft. The force transducer and accelerometer apparatus includes a force sensor and an accelerometer. The accelerometer includes an optic fiber having a Fiber Bragg Grating. Information acquired from the Fiber Bragg Grating is used to drive a vibrotactile haptic feedback output device coupled to a master control arm surgeon grip.

Abstract: Implementations relate to hand presence sensing at a control input device. In some implementations, a control input device includes a base member, a handle coupled to the base member and configured to be manually contacted at a grip portion of the handle and moved by a hand of a user in one or more degrees of freedom, one or more control input sensors configured to detect positions or orientations of the handle in the one or more degrees of freedom, and a presence sensor coupled to the base member. The presence sensor has a sensing field, and at least a portion of the sensing field is located proximate to the handle.

Abstract: A system and method of repositioning input control devices includes an operator workstation for controlling a computer-assisted device includes an input control device for use by an operator, one or more sensors, and a controller coupled to the one or more sensors and the input control device. The controller is configured to determine whether the operator is interacting with the input control device using the one or more sensors and in response to determining a lack of operator interaction with the input control device, determine a trajectory for moving the input control device from a current position or orientation toward a desired position or orientation, and move the input control device along the trajectory. In some embodiments, the controller is further configured to stop movement of the input control device along the trajectory in response to detecting a stopping condition.
