Abstract

A robotic surgical system includes a surgical console with a tracking device for determining whether a user is engaged with the surgical console and controls a mode of operation of at least one component of the robotic surgical system based on whether or not the user is engaged with the surgical console.

Claims (69)

1 . A robotic surgical system, comprising:

a robotic arm including a camera coupled thereto, the camera including a light emitter and configured to transmit video; and

a surgical console including:

a handle communicatively coupled to at least one of the robotic arm or the camera;

a display device configured to display video transmitted from the camera;

a tracking device including an image capture device configured to capture an image of a user position reference point; and

a computer configured to:

compute, based on the captured image, a position of the user position reference point relative to the display device;

determine whether a user is engaged with or disengaged from the surgical console based on the computed position; and

in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, perform at least one of the following:

cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality by reducing a baud rate of the camera or cause the camera to stop video transmission;

reduce a brightness level of the display device or reduce an intensity of the light emitter of the camera; or

adjust internal communication parameters between components of the robotic surgical system.

2 . The robotic surgical system of claim 1 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to:

cause the camera to stop video transmission; and

reduce the brightness level of the display device.

3 . The robotic surgical system of claim 1 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to:

cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality or stop video transmission; and

reduce the intensity of the light emitter.

4 . The robotic surgical system of claim 1 , further comprising a control tower including a second display device configured to display video transmitted by the camera.

5 . The robotic surgical system of claim 4 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to:

cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality to the second display device of the control tower; and

cause the camera to maintain video transmission quality to the display device of the surgical console.

6 . The robotic surgical system of claim 4 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to:

cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality to the display device of the surgical console; and

cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality to the second display device of the control tower.

7 . The robotic surgical system of claim 4 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to:

cause the camera to stop video transmission to the display device of the surgical console; and

cause the camera to stop video transmission to the second display device of the control tower.

8 . A robotic surgical system, comprising:

a camera configured to transmit video; and

a surgical console including:

a handle communicatively coupled to a surgical instrument;

a display device configured to display video transmitted from the camera;

a tracking device configured to track a position of a user operating the surgical console; and

a computer configured to:

determine whether a user is engaged with or disengaged from the display device of the surgical console based on the tracked position of the user operating the surgical console; and

in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time,

cause the camera to stop video transmission; and

reduce a brightness level of the display device.

9 . The robotic surgical system of claim 8 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality by reducing a baud rate of the camera.

10 . The robotic surgical system of claim 8 , wherein the camera includes a light emitter and, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to cause the camera to:

reduce video transmission quality or stop video transmission; and

reduce an intensity of the light emitter.

11 . The robotic surgical system of claim 8 , further comprising a control tower including a second display device configured to display video transmitted by the camera.

12 . The robotic surgical system of claim 11 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to:

cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality to the second display device of the control tower; and

cause the camera to maintain video transmission quality to the display device of the surgical console.

13 . The robotic surgical system of claim 11 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to:

cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality to the display device of the surgical console; and

cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality to the second display device of the control tower.

14 . The robotic surgical system of claim 11 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to cause the camera to stop video transmission to the display device of the surgical console and the second display device of the control tower.

15 . A robotic surgical system, comprising:

a robotic arm including a camera coupled thereto, the camera including a light emitter and configured to transmit video;

a control tower including a first display device configured to display video transmitted from the camera; and

a surgical console including:

a handle communicatively coupled to at least one of the robotic arm or the camera;

a second display device configured to display video transmitted from the camera;

a tracking device including an image capture device configured to capture an image of a user position reference point; and

a computer configured to:

determine whether a user is engaged with or disengaged from the second display device of the surgical console based on a tracked position of the user operating the surgical console; and

in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, perform at least one of the following:

reduce an intensity of the light emitter and cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality or cause the camera to stop video transmission;

reduce a brightness level of the first display device or the second display device; or

adjust internal communication parameters between components of the robotic surgical system.

16 . The robotic surgical system of claim 15 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to cause the camera to reduce video transmission quality by reducing a baud rate of the camera.

17 . The robotic surgical system of claim 15 , wherein, in response to a determination that the user is disengaged from the surgical console for a predetermined amount of time, the computer is configured to cause the camera to:

stop video transmission; and

reduce the brightness level of the second display device and maintain the brightness level of the first display device.
