Robotic device for use in image-guided robot assisted surgical training
First Claim
1. A robotic device for use in image-guided robot assisted surgical training, the robotic device comprising:
- a manual interface structure configured to simulate handling of a surgical tool;
a translational mechanism for translational motion of the manual interface structure;
a rotational mechanism for rotational motion of the manual interface structure; and
a spherical mechanism configured to decouple the orientation of the manual interface structure into spatial coordinates,wherein a linkage and the manual interface structure are disposed on opposing sides of an intersection of a pitch axis and a yaw axis of the spherical mechanism, wherein the linkage is a link between the rotational mechanism, the translational mechanism and the spherical mechanism.
