Abstract: Various systems, methods, and devices for identifying intraoperative bleeding are described. An example method includes identifying a first frame depicting a surgical scene; identifying a second frame depicting the surgical scene; identifying whether the second frame depicts bleeding by analyzing the first frame and the second frame; and outputting the second frame with an augmentation indicating whether bleeding is depicted in the second frame.

Abstract: Various systems, methods, and devices for identifying instrument movements likely to cause intraoperative bleeding are described. An example method includes identifying a movement of an instrument; determining that the movement of the instrument exceeds a threshold; and dampening the movement of the instrument based on determining that the movement exceeds the threshold.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically operating a camera includes a controller for controlling the movement of a robotically controlled camera. The controller includes a processor and a computer readable medium having instructions for controlling the camera. The system determines a task to be performed and, based on the determined task, determines a camera control scheme that corresponds to the task. The camera control scheme includes rules for controlling the camera. The system receives input parameters in the form of particular tools being used and the position and movement of the tools. The input parameters can be automatically determined by the controller via a video image produced by the camera. The controller will move the camera in response to particular movement of the tools and the particular rules of the determined control scheme that correspond to the particular movements.
