  • Remotely-operated robotic control system for use with a medical instrument and associated use thereof
    Patent number: 10219867
    Abstract: A manipulator, for use with a robotic control system, to maneuver an existing instrument (e.g., medical instrument) to a desired location within a target zone includes at least one controller, a rotation mechanism in communication with the at least one controller and being rotated about a first axis, a horizontal movement mechanism in communication with the at least one controller and being displaced along a first path, and a deflection mechanism capable of receiving a portion of the existing instrument. Such a deflection mechanism is in communication with the at least one controller and displaced along a second path in such a manner that causes deflection of a distal end (e.g., portion of an insertion tube) of the existing medical instrument.
