  • Patent number: 12279781
    Abstract: A 2D image-guided surgical robot system for distal locking operations includes surgical image acquisition equipment, a robot arm, a robot end effector attached to the robot arm, and a remote operation workstation. To perform a distal locking operation, the position of the image acquisition device is adjusted to obtain a round outline of a lockhole in the image. A distortion correction is performed. The position of the target lockhole is assigned by a user through the GUI of the remote operation workstation, and the remote operation workstation calculates a robot motion quantity using image feedback control law and moves the robot accordingly. The “image-and-move” procedure is repeated several times until the drill guide is accurately aligned to the lockhole, then the distal locking operation is accomplished by first drilling a guide hole using a guide wire through the drill guide, and then screwing a locking screw through the guide hole.

  • Patent number: 11751951
    Abstract: A surface tracking-based surgical robot system for drilling operations includes surface scanning equipment, a robot arm, and a workstation. To perform a drilling operation, surface information for the target surgery area and the surgical tool held by the robot arm is simultaneously collected with the same surface scanning equipment. A preoperative 3D image of a surgical area and a CAD model of the surgical tool are registered to the collected surface information, through which the relative position between a surgical path and the surgical tool is obtained. Using this relative position, the robot arm aligns to the predefined surgical path using a feedback control method running on a workstation. The drilling operation is then autonomously executed by the robot arm or manually performed under the guidance of the surgical tool held by the robot arm.
