Abstract: Systems and methods of controlled grasping and energy delivery include a computer-assisted device. The computer-assisted device includes an end effector and one or more processors. The end effector includes a first jaw, a second jaw, and a plurality of electrodes for delivering energy. The one or more processors are configured to grasp a material using the first jaw and the second jaw, determine characteristics of the grasp, determine characteristics of the material, and control one or more of the grasp or energy delivery by the plurality of electrodes based on the determined characteristics of the grasp and the determined characteristics of the material. According to some embodiments, the characteristics of the material include one or more of thermal, dielectric, or stiffness of the material. In some embodiments, the characteristics of the grasp include one or more of applied pressure, jaw angle, jaw separation, force, torque, or wrist articulation.
