Patent number: 11986165Abstract: Co-manipulation robotic systems are described herein that may be used for assisting with laparoscopic surgical procedures. The co-manipulation robotic systems allow a surgeon to use commercially-available surgical tools while providing benefits associated with surgical robotics. Advantageously, the surgical tools may be seamlessly coupled to the robot arms using a disposable coupler while the reusable portions of the robot arm remain in a sterile drape. Further, the co-manipulation robotic system may operate in multiple modes to enhance usability and safety, while allowing the surgeon to position the instrument directly with the instrument handle and further maintain the desired position of the instrument using the robot arm.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2023Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Moon Surgical SASInventors: Nicolas Linard, Ehsan Basafa, David Paul Noonan

Patent number: 10776920Abstract: According to a first aspect, the invention relates to a method to support clinical decision by characterizing images acquired in sequence through a video medical device. The method comprises defining at least one image quantitative criterion, storing sequential images in a buffer, for each image (10) in the buffer, automatically determining, using a first algorithm, at least one output based on said image quantitative criterion and attaching said output to a timeline (11).Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2018Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Inventors: Nicolas Linard, Barbara Andre, Julien Dauguet, Tom Vercauteren
