本文针对机器人辅助腹腔镜手术中的精细操作(如切除与解剖)开发了一种自适应辅助系统。尽管虚拟约束能有效引导外科医生操作,但传统方法依赖固定几何结构,难以适应手术流程或医生即时意图。为此,我们提出一种新型自适应各向异性虚拟约束框架,并引入基于肌电(EMG)信号的直观控制界面,实现对约束范围的实时调节。外科医生通过前臂肌肉收缩可动态扩展或解除约束,从而在精确引导与自由移动间无缝切换。基于标准化训练任务的初步用户研究结果显示,该系统显著提升了操作精度与动作一致性,同时降低了主观认知负荷、努力程度和挫败感。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In this paper, we address the development of an adaptive assistance system for robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery, specifically for delicate tasks such as Resection and Dissection. Even if Virtual Fixtures offer significant advantages for guiding a surgeon's movements, conventional Virtual Fixtures are often defined by fixed geometries, lacking the flexibility to adapt to the surgical workflow or the surgeon's immediate intent. To address these limitations, we propose a novel framework for an adaptive and anisotropic virtual fixture. In addition, we introduce an intuitive control interface that modulates the fixture's geometry in real-time based on the surgeon's intent, inferred from EMG signals. This approach allows the surgeon to dynamically expand or disengage the constraint by contracting their forearm muscles, enabling seamless transitions between precise guided motion and free repositioning of the tool. Experimental results from a pilot user study, based on a standardized surgical training task, demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. The system showed significant improvements in task accuracy and movement consistency, alongside a reduction in perceived cognitive load, effort, and frustration.
