Abstract
Disclosed is a medical robot system including medical robots placed at different locations and a data analysis apparatus. Each of the medical robots includes a controller that transmits data on a state of operation of the medical robot to the data analysis apparatus. The data analysis apparatus includes a data analysis unit that generates a reference for determining whether or not the medical robots are normal, based on the data transmitted from the medical robots. The data analysis unit monitors the data transmitted from each of the medical robots in operation based on the reference.
Claims18
A medical robot system comprising:
- a surgical system;
- and
- a data analysis apparatus in communication with the surgical system, wherein
- the surgical system comprises:
- a manipulator arm;
- an endoscope;
- a manipulation apparatus configured to receive a motion command for remotely controlling the manipulation arm, and
- a controller configured to:
- transmit a command value corresponding to the motion command to the manipulator arm such that the manipulator arm is remotely controlled based on the command value;
- transmit image data generated based on an image captured by the endoscope to the manipulation apparatus such that the manipulation apparatus displays the image based on the image data;
- and transmit the command value and the image data to the data analysis apparatus, wherein
- the data analysis apparatus comprises a data analysis unit that is configured to generate an analysis result regarding a movement of the manipulator arm, by comparing a first position of the manipulator arm calculated based on the image data transmitted from the controller with a second position of the manipulator arm based on the command value transmitted from the controller.
A method implemented by a medical robot system comprising a surgical system including a manipulation apparatus, a manipulator arm, and an endoscope, the method comprising:
- transmitting a command value corresponding to a motion command received by the manipulation apparatus to the manipulator arm such that the manipulator arm is remotely controlled based on the command value;
- capturing an image of an inside of a subject during surgery by the endoscope of the surgical system;
- transmitting image data generated based on the image captured by the endoscope to the manipulation apparatus such that the manipulation apparatus displays the image based on the image data;
- and
- generating an analysis result regarding a movement of the manipulator arm, by comparing a first position of the manipulator arm calculated based on the image data with a second position of the manipulator arm based on the command value.
