【 摘 要 】

With the application of four optical CMOS sensors, it was possible to capture the trajectory of an endoscopic tool during an in vitro surgical experiment on a cardiovascular preparation. This was due to the possibility of obtaining a path when a reflective marker was attached. In the work, APAS (Ariel Performance Analysis System) software and DLT (direct linear transformation) algorithm were used. This made it possible to acquire kinematic inputs to the computational model of dynamics, which enabled, regardless of the type of surgical robot structure, derivation of the analogous motion of an endoscopic effector due to the mathematical transformation of the trajectory to joints coordinates. Experiments were carried out with the participation of a practiced cardiac surgeon employing classic endoscopic instruments and robot surgical systems. The results indicated by the experiment showed that the inverse task of kinematics of position for the surgical robot with RCM (remote center of motion) structure was solved. The achieved results from the experiment were used as inputs for deriving a numerical dynamics model of surgical robot during transient states that was obtained by applying the finite element method and by driving dynamics moments acquired through the block diagrams method using a steering system with DC (direct current) motor and PID (proportional–integral–derivative) controller. The results section illustrates the course of kinematic values of endoscopic tools which were employed to apply numerical models as inputs, the course of the driving torque of the model of the surgical robot that enabled the selection of the drive system and the strength values, stresses and displacements according to von Mises hypothesis in its structure during the analysis of transient states that made it possible to establish the strength safety of the surgical robot. For the conducted experiments, the accuracy was ±2 [mm]. In the paper, the employment of optical CMOS sensors in surgical robotics and endoscopy is discussed. The paper concludes that the usage of optical sensors for determining inputs for numerical models of dynamics of surgical robots provides the basis for setting the course of physical quantities that appear in their real object structure, in manners close to reality.
