Surgical robotics system

A surgical robotics system comprising:

• a base for supporting the system on a floor;
• a column coupled to the base, the column having a center vertical axis oriented approximately perpendicular to the floor;
• a plurality of column rings coupled to the column, each column ring configured to vertically translate independently from each other ring along the center vertical axis, and configured to rotate independently from each other ring about the center vertical axis;
• and
• a plurality of robotic arms, each robotic arm coupled to one of the column rings, each robotic arm comprising a plurality of arm segments, each arm segment configured to move independently from each other arm segment, and wherein one or more of the robotic arms of the plurality of robotic arms are configured to manipulate a surgical instrument to perform a surgical procedure.

A surgical robotics system comprising:

• a base for supporting the system on a floor, comprising:
• one or more base rails movably coupled to the base, each base rail including one or more arm mounts configured to translate, independently from each other arm mount, along a longitudinal axis of the base rail parallel to the floor;
• a column coupled to the base, the column having a center vertical axis oriented approximately perpendicular to the floor;
• a plurality of column rings coupled to the column, each column ring configured to vertically translate independently from each other ring along the center vertical axis, and configured to rotate independently from each other ring about the center vertical axis;
• and
• a plurality of robotic arms, each robotic arm coupled to one of the column rings or coupled to one of the arm mounts of one of the base rails, each robotic arm comprising a plurality of arm segments, each arm segment configured to move independently from each other arm segment, and wherein one or more of the robotic arms of the plurality of robotic arms are configured to manipulate a surgical instrument to perform a surgical procedure.
