Surgical system having interchangeable tool tips and methods of use thereof

A method for performing a surgical procedure, the method comprising:

• positioning a first tool tip of a plurality of interchangeable tool tips at a distal end of an elongated shaft of a surgical device for performing a first type of surgical task, the first tool tip releasably coupled to a distal region of a tool activation mechanism;
• receiving, via a user interface, user input indicative of a second tool tip of the plurality of interchangeable tool tips for performing a second type of surgical task, the second tool tip disposed within a magazine comprising a plurality of chambers and positioned at a proximal end of the elongated shaft, each chamber of the plurality of chambers configured to receive an interchangeable tool tip therein;
• retracting the first tool tip into a first chamber of the plurality of chambers using the tool activation mechanism;
• selectively actuating, via at least one motor operatively coupled to the magazine, the magazine to align a second chamber of the plurality of chambers with the proximal end of the elongated shaft based on the user input, the second chamber having the second tool tip therein;
• and
• transitioning the tool activation mechanism between a retracted configuration where the distal region of the tool activation mechanism is disposed proximal to the second chamber and an extended configuration where the distal region is releasably coupled to the second tool tip and advanced such that the second tool tip is mounted at the distal end of the elongated shaft for performing the second type of surgical task.
