This technical disclosure describes improvements that would be readily apparent to a Person Having Ordinary Skill In The Art (PHOSITA) when considered in combination with the foundational architecture disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 11,857,149.

Summary of the Inventive Concept

The present disclosure relates to an enhanced surgical robotic system that improves precision, safety, and user experience by integrating real-time trajectory deviation detection and response capabilities.

Background and Problem Solved

The original patent, 'Surgical robotic systems with target trajectory deviation monitoring and related methods', has limitations in terms of latency, precision, and user interface. The new inventive concept addresses these limitations by incorporating advanced trajectory deviation detection and response mechanisms, ensuring more accurate and efficient surgical procedures.

Detailed Description of the Inventive Concept

The enhanced surgical robotic system comprises a robotic arm, an optical sensor system, and a real-time trajectory deviation detection module. The module receives position information from the sensor system and generates a predicted trajectory deviation warning. The system also features an improved user interface, displaying real-time trajectory deviation information and allowing users to adjust the surgical end-effector trajectory in response to the deviation warning. Additionally, the system incorporates machine learning algorithms to optimize robotic arm movement and reduce latency. In case of a predetermined trajectory deviation threshold, the system automatically shuts down the robotic arm to prevent potential surgical complications.

Novelty and Inventive Step

The new claims introduce the concept of real-time trajectory deviation detection and response, which is not present in the original patent. The inventive step lies in the integration of advanced trajectory deviation detection and response mechanisms, enabling more accurate and efficient surgical procedures.

Alternative Embodiments and Variations

Alternative embodiments of the inventive concept could include the use of different sensor systems, such as electromagnetic or ultrasound sensors, or the integration of additional safety features, such as automatic instrument adjustment or real-time feedback mechanisms. Variations of the system could also be designed for specific surgical procedures or applications.

Potential Commercial Applications and Market

The enhanced surgical robotic system has significant commercial potential in the medical device industry, particularly in the fields of robotic-assisted surgery and minimally invasive procedures. The system's improved precision, safety, and user experience could lead to increased adoption and market share in these areas.
