Robotic surgical system with tool lift control

This is a robotic surgical system that uses a tool on a robotic arm to apply ultrasound energy to tissue. While applying energy, it measures the tissue's electrical resistance. Once the system detects the tissue is fully cauterized, it automatically lifts the tool to cut the tissue, controlling the speed of the lift. The tool can lift either by moving the entire arm or by moving independently.

Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in AI and machine learning for real-time sensor data analysis and robotic control. These technologies could now enhance the system's ability to precisely determine tissue cauterization and control tool movement.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedRobotic arm, ultrasound, impedance sensor, control software
