A medical robot system patent (Publication Number: US20240025047A1) describes a system comprising a surgical system and a data analysis apparatus in communication with each other. The surgical system includes a manipulator arm, an endoscope, and a controller that transmits image data from the endoscope to the data analysis apparatus. The data analysis unit in the apparatus is designed to detect errors in the movement of the manipulator arm based on the transmitted image data. The system can have multiple manipulator arms, with the data analysis unit analyzing relative positions among them to identify errors.

Furthermore, the patent also outlines a method implemented by the medical robot system, involving capturing images during surgery using the endoscope, transmitting the image data to the data analysis apparatus, and detecting errors in the manipulator arm's movement based on the transmitted data. The method can involve different configurations of manipulator arms, including those with attached instruments or endoscopes. Additionally, the system can utilize a manipulation apparatus to remotely control the manipulator arm, with the data analysis unit detecting errors based on whether the arm has moved according to commands. Overall, the patent details a comprehensive system and method for monitoring and analyzing the movement of manipulator arms during medical procedures, enhancing the precision and safety of robotic surgery.
