  • 适合关注机器人手术未来发展的研究者与临床工程师

近年来,执行、控制和学习方面的进展已使人形机器人迅速从远景走向近期内部部署。医疗领域尤为迫切,因人员短缺与护理需求增长,导致临床工作量与熟练人力之间的差距持续扩大。尽管当前自动化多集中于数字和后勤任务,大量医院工作仍需移动、操作及在人为设计环境中安全交互的能力。人形形态具有独特潜力,尤其适用于辅助外科手术。传统手术机器人如直觉外科的达芬奇系统是专用平台,而当前人形系统是否达到微创手术所需的精度、控制与安全性仍不明确。本文系统评估了当代人形技术在腹腔镜手术任务中的表现,采用通用器械构建基于人形机器人的腹腔镜远程操控框架,并通过实验台测试、涵盖不同经验水平的干实验室用户研究以及活体猪实验进行评估。综合各项测试,量化了技术可行性、任务表现与临床准备度,相较于成熟手术平台提供了实证依据。本研究揭示了人形机器人在手术应用中的潜力与关键挑战,为临床部署前的技术改进指明方向。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Recent advances in actuation, control and learning have rapidly pushed humanoid robots from a distant vision towards near-term real-world deployment. Healthcare is a particularly pressing domain, in which staffing shortages and increasing care demand are widening the gap between clinical workload and available skilled labour. Although current automation has largely focused on digital and logistical tasks, much hospital work remains embodied, requiring mobility, manipulation and safe interaction in human-designed environments. Humanoid form factors offer unique potential, particularly for assisting with surgical tasks. Traditionally, robotic systems for surgery are purpose-built platforms such as Intuitive Surgical's da Vinci Surgical System, and it remains unclear how close current humanoid systems are to meeting the precision, control and safety requirements of minimally invasive surgery. Here we present a systematic evaluation of contemporary humanoid technology for laparoscopic surgical tasks. We develop a humanoid-based laparoscopic teleoperation framework using general-purpose instruments and assess its abilities through benchtop characterization, dry-laboratory user studies spanning diverse surgical experience levels and in vivo porcine studies. Across these evaluations, we quantify technical feasibility, task performance and clinical readiness relative to established surgical platforms. Together, our study provides an evidence-based assessment of current humanoid abilities and limitations for surgical applications, highlighting both their promise and key technical challenges that must be addressed before clinical deployment.
