Abstract
A method for performing a surgical procedure includes adjusting an encoding configuration of a video encoder in response to receiving an input associated with a change of state of a surgical system performing the surgical procedure, and encoding image data of the surgical procedure captured after the change of state based on the adjusted encoding configuration.
Claims21
A teleoperated surgical system, comprising:
- a video encoder configured to encode video image data based on an encoding parameter, the video image data corresponding to video images captured by an image capture device taking images of content comprising one or more objects in a field of view of the image capture device from a medical procedure;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- receive a signal indicative that a tool of the surgical system is expected to perform an action, wherein the action of the tool is expected to, upon being performed, change the content in the field of view of the image capture device and the signal is received prior to the action being performed;
- and
- in response to receiving the signal, adjust a value of the encoding parameter.
