Abstract
A method for operating a medical-robotic device is provided. The robotic device includes a number of components able to be moved autonomously in an environment of the robotic device. Planning data for an autonomous movement or constraint of at least one subset of the movable components is provided to the robotic device. A movement or constraint of the corresponding movable components to be carried out autonomously by the robotic device is planned based on the planning data provided. The planned movement or constraint is visually presented. A way for an operator to exert influence on the planned movement or constraint is provided, and the movement or constraint is autonomously carried out as a function of the influence exerted.
Claims20
A method for operating a medical-robotic device, wherein the medical-robotic device includes a number of components that are moveable autonomously in an environment of the medical-robotic device, the method comprising:
- providing planning data for an autonomous movement or constraint of at least one subset of the movable components to the medical robotic device;
- planning a movement or constraint of the corresponding movable components to be carried out autonomously by the medical-robotic device based on the planning data provided;
- visually presenting the planned movement or constraint;
- providing an input allowing an operator to exert influence on the planned movement or constraint;
- autonomously carrying out the movement or constraint as a function of the influence exerted.
A medical-robotic device comprising:
- a number of components moveable autonomously in an environment of the medical-robotic device,
- wherein the medical-robotic device is configured, for at least a subset of the movable components based on the planning data provided, autonomously to plan a movement or constraint of a movement and to move or to constrain the corresponding movable components, and wherein the medical-robotic device is also configured, before the carrying out of an autonomous movement or constraint of the corresponding movable components, to visually present the planned movement or constraint and to provide an input for the operator to exert influence on the planned movement or constraint.
