The system includes a surgical manipulator for manipulating the surgical instrument and at least one computer configured to identify a first subset and a second subset of interaction geometric primitives associated with a virtual tool; determine, based on the first subset, control forces in a first subspace; and determine based on the second subset, control forces in a second subspace having at least one additional dimension. Control forces in the additional dimension are only determined based on the second subset of primitives, which is different than the first subset of primitives. The computer is further configured to determine a torque to constrain an orientation of the surgical instrument, wherein determining the torque comprises defining a virtual tool normal and a control plane normal and using the virtual tool normal and control plane normal to calculate the torque.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2017Publication date: June 22, 2017Applicant: MAKO Surgical CorporationInventors: Christopher Alan Lightcap, Hyosig Kang, David Gene Bowling, John Michael Stuart, Jerry A.

Patent number: 9161760Abstract: A surgical tool is disclosed that may be rotatably mounted to a surgical robotic arm. The surgical tool is rotatable about a first axis that is at least substantially vertical when the robotic arm is in a horizontal position. The surgical tool includes a housing that is coupled to the arm and rotatable about the first axis. The housing is at least substantially cylindrical and defines a second axis that is at least substantially perpendicular to the first axis. The tool also includes a handle that includes a grip that is coupled to a sleeve. The sleeve rotatably accommodates at least part of the housing. As a result, the handle and sleeve may be rotated about the second axis while the housing remains fixed with respect to the second axis.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2011Date of Patent: October 20, 2015Assignee: Mako Surgical CorporationInventors: Joseph Suarez, Brian Schmitz

Patent number: 9125669Abstract: A haptic robotic system for reaming an acetabulum prior to inserting an acetabular cup is more accurate than conventional instruments and may reduce the risk of dislocation and improve durability of a hip implant. Disclosed is a three-dimensional tool path, referred to as a haptic volume. Once the haptic volume is implemented into the software of a haptically constrained surgical robotic system, the cutting tool or reamer can only be utilized within the haptic volume. The haptic volume guides the surgeon in preparing the final reamed bone surface with a greatly reduced chance of the reaming unintended bone and greatly increases the chance that the reaming procedure may be carried out using one reaming tool, or using a single-stage reaming process.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2011Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignee: MAKO Surgical CorporationInventors: Amar Ranawat, Mark Pagnano, Lawrence Dorr, Richard Jones, Danielle Landeck, Matt Thompson, Radu Iorgulescu, Renen Bassik, Daniel Odermatt
