System for endoscopic surgery having a function of controlling through voice recognition
First Claim
1. A system for endoscopic surgery having a function of controlling, through voice recognition, a connected peripheral device, comprising:
- storage unit that stores a command for controlling the peripheral device and whether or not the command is valid or invalid in an associated manner for each combination of an operator and a procedure of an endoscopic surgery;
a specification unit that receives specification of the operator and the procedure;
a conversion unit that recognizes an input voice, and converts the voice into a voice command;
a determination unit that refers to the storage unit, and determines whether or not the voice command obtained by the conversion unit is identical to a command that has been set to be valid for the combination of the operator and the procedure specified by the specification unit;
a transmission unit that halts a transmission process to a peripheral device that corresponds to a command that has been determined to be invalid by the determination unit; and
a scene specification unit that receives specification of a scene of the endoscopic surgery, wherein;
in the conversion unit, a voice command is information obtained by conversion into a character string;
the storage unit stores, for each of the operators and the procedures, whether each of the commands is valid or invalid for each of the scenes; and
when a scene has been received in the scene specification unit, the determination unit determines whether or not the character string is identical to a command that has been set to be valid in the storage unit for the received scene for the operator and the procedure received in the specification unit.

Abstract
In a system for endoscopic surgery, a storage unit stores a command for controlling a peripheral device and whether or not the command is valid or invalid in an associated manner for each operator and each procedure of an endoscopic surgery. A specification unit receives specification of an operator and a procedure. A conversion unit recognizes an input voice, and converts the voice into a voice command. A determination unit refers to the storage unit, and determines whether or not the voice command obtained by the conversion unit is identical to a command that has been set to be valid for the operator and the procedure specified by the specification unit. A transmission unit halts a transmission process to a peripheral device that corresponds to a command that has been determined to be invalid by the determination unit.
