    Abstract: A surgical instrument has a tip section with several degrees of freedom of articulation and at least one link that may be too long for insertion through an entry guide that follows a curved path. Each long link is made of a shape memory alloy or another material having a state in which the link is sufficiently flexible to bend as needed to pass through the entry guide. Once through the entry guide, the material of the link makes a transition to a state in which the link returns to a desired shape and is sufficiently rigid for precise controlled movement against external forces and for actuation using tendons.

    Abstract: A robotic control system is placed in clutch mode so that a slave manipulator holding a surgical instrument is temporarily disengaged from control by a master manipulator in order to allow manual positioning of the surgical instrument at a surgical site within a patient. Control systems implemented in a processor compensate for internally generated frictional and inertial resistance experienced during the positioning, thereby making movement more comfortable to the mover, and stabler from a control standpoint. Each control system drives a joint motor in the slave manipulator with a saturated torque command signal which has been generated to compensate for non-linear viscous forces, coulomb friction, cogging effects, and inertia forces subjected to the joint, using estimated joint angular velocities, accelerations and externally applied torques generated by an observer in the control system from sampled displacement measurements received from a sensor associated with the joint.

    Abstract: An instrument system includes actuators, an instrument, and a control system. The instrument includes joints and transmission systems that couple the joints with the actuators. A first joint is distal to a second joint, a first transmission system passes through the second joint to couple to the first joint, and a second transmission system couples to the second joint. The control system is programmed to determine a first tension to be applied by the first transmission system, determine a first estimate of an interaction response that results at the second joint from applying the first tension by the first transmission system, determine a second tension to be applied by the second transmission system based on a first set of parameters, the first set of parameters including the first estimate, and command the actuators such that the first and second transmission systems apply the first and second tensions, respectively.
