| Abstract: While offering clinical and ergonomic benefits, teleoperated surgical robots substantially change the perceptual feedback available to surgeons. Direct manipulation heavily relies on touch, but most robots provide no haptic feedback due to challenges in both sensing and closed-loop stability. About 15 years ago, my team invented a practical and effective way to add haptic feedback to such systems. VerroTouch measures, transmits, and actuates the naturalistic instrument vibrations that are mainly caused by transient contact; this type of vibrotactile feedback facilitates acquisition and evaluation of surgical skill. Contact forces can also be estimated by visually observing the instruments and the soft materials they touch, much as experienced surgeons do. Though more developed than haptics, the visual feedback provided by teleoperated surgical robots can also be improved. Surgeons appreciate our interactive approach to visual augmented reality, particularly praising voice commands and accurate 3D measurements. Finally, we have come to believe that viewing the surgical field from a single stereoscopic viewpoint limits depth perception, anatomical visibility, safety, and future autonomy. We thus recently created the first da Vinci Research Kit with two controllable stereo endoscopes and are exploring the potential of multi-view surgical telerobotics. | |
