INSTRUMENT DRIVE UNIT TORQUE COMPENSATION USING INERTIAL MEASUREMENT UNIT

摘要

An instrument drive unit includes a housing defining a central longitudinal axis; an inertial measurement unit disposed within the housing and configured to determine a pose of the instrument drive unit; and a controller disposed within the housing, the controller configured to receive the pose of the instrument drive unit from the inertial measurement unit and to generate a corrected output signal which compensates for the pose of the instrument drive unit.
