    摘要: A robot system that includes a robot and a remote station. The remote station may be a personal computer coupled to the robot through a broadband network. A user at the remote station may receive both video and audio from a camera and a microphone of the robot, respectively. The remote station may include a visual display that displays both a first screen field and a second screen field. The first screen field may display a video image provided by a robot camera. The second screen field may display information such as patient records. The information from the second screen field may be moved to the first screen field and also transmitted to the robot for display by a robot monitor. The user at the remote station may annotate the information displayed by the robot monitor to provide a more active video-conferencing experience.

    摘要: A robot system that can move about two or more patient beds. The robot includes a monitor and an infrared camera that are coupled to a mobile platform. The robot also includes a controller that is programmed to autonomously move the mobile platform from one patient to another patient and process images captured by the infrared camera to determine if one or more of the patients needs assistance. By way of example, the robot can determine whether a patient is out of a bed, or in a position wherein they may fall out of the bed. The robot may be coupled to a remote station that allows an operator to move the robot and conduct a videoconference with the patient. The image captured by the infrared robot camera can be utilized to analyze blood flow of the patient. The robot can also be utilized to perform neurological analysis.

    摘要: A robot system that includes a remote control station and a robot that has a camera, a monitor and a microphone. The robot includes a user interface that allows a user to link the remote control station to access the robot. By way of example, the user interface may include a list of remote control stations that can be selected by a user at the robot site to link the robot to the selected control station. The user interface can display a connectivity prompt that allows a user at the robot site to grant access to the robot. The connectivity prompt is generated in response to a request for access by a remote control station. The robot may include a laser pointer and a button that allows a user at the robot site to turn the laser pointer on and off.

    摘要: A system for performing minimally invasive cardiac procedures. The system includes a pair of surgical instruments that are coupled to a pair of robotic arms. The instruments have end effectors that can be manipulated to hold and suture tissue. The robotic arms are coupled to a pair of master handles by a controller. The handles can be moved by the surgeon to produce a corresponding movement of the end effectors. The movement of the handles is scaled so that the end effectors have a corresponding movement that is different, typically smaller, than the movement performed by the hands of the surgeon. The scale factor is adjustable so that the surgeon can control the resolution of the end effector movement. The movement of the end effector can be controlled by an input button, so that the end effector only moves when the button is depressed by the surgeon. The input button allows the surgeon to adjust the position of the handles without moving the end effector, so that the handles can be moved to a more comfortable position. The system may also have a robotically controlled endoscope which allows the surgeon to remotely view the surgical site. A cardiac procedure can be performed by making small incisions in the patient's skin and inserting the instruments and endoscope into the patient. The surgeon manipulates the handles and moves the end effectors to perform a cardiac procedure such as a coronary artery bypass graft.
