Abstract
Various robotic surgical systems are provided. A robotic surgical system comprises a robotic tool, a control system, and a control module. The control system comprises a control console configured to receive a first user input, and also comprises a control unit in signal communication with the control console and the robotic tool. The control module is configured to receive a second user input, and is in signal communication with the control system.
Claims27
A robotic surgical system, comprising:
- a robotic tool;
- a control system, comprising:
- a control console configured to receive a first user input;
- and
- a control unit in signal communication with said control console and said robotic tool;
- and
- a control module configured to receive a second user input, wherein said control module is in signal communication with said control system, wherein said control module comprises a mobile handheld device, and wherein said control system is configured to control said robotic tool based on said first user input and said second user input.
