A novel multimodal robotic scrub nurse (RSN) system for the operating room (OR) is presented. The RSN assists the main surgeon by passing surgical instruments. Experiments were conducted to test the system with speech and gesture modalities and average instrument acquisition times were compared. Experimental results showed that 97% of the gestures were recognized correctly under changes in scale and...
A gesture driven robotic scrub nurse (GRSN) for the operating room (OR) is presented. The GRSN passes surgical instruments to the surgeon during surgery which reduces the workload of a human scrub nurse. This system offers several advantages such as freeing human nurses to perform concurrent tasks, and reducing errors in the OR due to miscommunication or absence of surgical staff. Hand gestures are...
