Abstract
The embodiments relate to a method for operating a medical robotic device with an end effector for performing a diagnostic and/or therapeutic measure, involving predetermining at least one position to be reached by the end effector, evaluating at least two movement sequences of the medical robotic device, by which the end effector reaches the respectively predetermined at least one position, using an optimization criterion to select the movement sequence with the best evaluation result as the optimum movement sequence and implementing the optimum movement sequence, so that the respective predetermined position is reached by the end effector, in order to improve the reaching of the predetermined position.
Claims18
A method for operating a medical robotic device with an end effector for performing a diagnostic measure, a therapeutic measure, or diagnostic and therapeutic measures, the method comprising:
- predetermining at least one position to be reached by the end effector;
- evaluating at least two movement sequences of the medical robotic device using an optimization criterion, by which the end effector reaches the respectively predetermined position;
- selecting a movement sequence of the movement sequences with a best evaluation result as the optimum movement sequence;
- and
- implementing the optimum movement sequence, so that the respective predetermined position is reached by the end effector.
A medical robotic device comprising:
- an end effector for performing a diagnostic measure, a therapeutic measure, or diagnostic and therapeutic measures;
- and
- a control unit for implementing a movement sequence of the medical robotic device, the control unit configured to:
- (1) use an optimization criterion to perform an evaluation of at least two movement sequences of the medical robotic device, for at least one predetermined position to be reached by the end effector, by which the end effector reaches the respectively predetermined at least one position, and
- (2) select and implement the movement sequence with a best evaluation result.
