Systems and methods for presenting augmented reality in a display of a teleoperational system
A system comprises a processor and a memory having computer readable instructions stored thereon, which, when executed by the processor, cause the system to display an image of a surgical environment. The image includes an information icon corresponding to an instrument in the surgical environment. The instructions further cause the system to display an image of a body part of a user. The image of the body part is used to interact with the information icon. The instructions further cause the system to receive a gesture of the body part, via a gesture-based input device registering movement of the body part, to cause the image of the body part to interact with the information icon. The instructions further cause the system to display an information menu in the image of the surgical environment based on the interaction between the image of the body part and the information icon.
1. A system comprising:
a processor; and
a memory having computer readable instructions stored thereon, the computer readable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the system to:
display an image of a surgical environment, wherein the image includes an information icon corresponding to an instrument in the surgical environment;
display an image of a body part of a user, the image of the body part used to interact with the information icon;
receive a gesture of the body part of the user, via a gesture based input device registering movement of the body part of the user, to cause the image of the body part to interact with the information icon; and
display an information menu in the image of the surgical environment based on the interaction between the image of the body part and the information icon.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image of the body part interacts with the information icon when the image of the body part contacts the information icon.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image of the body part interacts with the information icon when the image of the body part is within close proximity to the information icon.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the information menu includes information about the instrument.
5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the information about the instrument comprises at least one of an instrument type, an activation status of the instrument, or operating instructions for the instrument.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the information menu includes one or more graphical elements activatable by the image of the body part of the user.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein when the graphical elements are activated by the image of the body part, an operation of the instrument is effected.
8. The system of claim 1 , further comprising the gesture based input device, wherein the gesture based input device is configured to receive a three dimensional user input.
9. The system of claim 1 , further comprising the gesture based input device, wherein the gesture based input device includes at least one of a tablet device or a user wearable device.
10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the body part used to provide input to the gesture based input device is at least one of a user hand or a user foot.
11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image of the surgical environment is displayed on at least one of a head-mounted display device or a patient-side device.
12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image of the surgical environment is an endoscopic image inside a patient anatomy.
13. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image of the surgical environment is an external image of a patient anatomy.
14. The system of claim 1 , wherein the information icon is overlaid over an image of the instrument in the surgical environment.
15. The system of claim 1 , wherein the information menu is displayed near the information icon.
16. The system of claim 1 , wherein the image of the surgical environment further includes a second information icon corresponding to a second instrument in the surgical environment, and wherein the image of the body part is further used to interact with the second information icon.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the instructions further cause the system to:
receive a second gesture of the body part of the user, via the gesture based input device, to cause the image of the body part to interact with the second information icon; and
display a second information menu in the image of the surgical environment based on the interaction between the image of the body part and the second information icon.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the second information menu includes information about the second instrument, and wherein the information about the second instrument comprises at least one of an instrument type, an activation status of the second instrument, or operating instructions for the second instrument.
19. The system of claim 17 , wherein the second information menu includes one or more graphical elements activatable by the image of the body part of the user, and wherein when the graphical elements are activated by the image of the body part, an operation of the second instrument is effected.
20. The system of claim 16 , wherein the information icon is overlaid over an image of the instrument in the surgical environment, and wherein the second information icon is overlaid over an image of the second instrument in the surgical environment.
