Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021152556A1] A control method for a robotic manipulator cooperating with the surgeon, in particular for application in spine surgery, specifically in a tapping operation of the vertebral peduncles. The general aim of the invention is to guarantee to the surgeon to have a continuous control of the force/torque applied on the vertebral peduncles whereas the robotic arm constraints the position and orientation of the surgical instrument along the axis of motion identified in the pre-operatory phase. The method provides that the surgeon controls directly and continuously the interaction forces/torques along the tapping axis, whereas the robotic arm constraints the position and orientation of the surgical instrument in the directions orthogonal to the tapping axis identified in pre-operative phase.
