“…For this reason, allowing a robot to automatically control the zoom based on the surgeon's task has a great opportunity to contribute to a surgeon's performance. Ellis et al [49], [50] demonstrated that the zoom level had a significant effect on surgeon performance. Removing the task of camera control from the surgeon would relieve the surgeon of a task and ensure quick and responsive camera control.…”

In the past decade, Robotic-Assisted Surgery (RAS) has become a widely accepted technique as an alternative to traditional open surgery procedures. The best robotic assistant system should combine both human and robot capabilities under the human control. As a matter of fact robot should collaborate with surgeons in a natural and autonomous way, thus requiring less of the surgeons' attention. In this survey, we provide a comprehensive and structured review of the roboticassisted surgery and autonomous camera movement for RAS operation. We also discuss several topics, including but not limited to task and gesture recognition, that are closely related to robotic-assisted surgery automation and illustrate several successful applications in various real-world application domains. We hope that this paper will provide a more thorough understanding of the recent advances in camera automation in RSA and offer some future research directions.

“…Today, the combination of three-dimensional (3D) imaging data, computers and sensors (4) allow robots to guide instruments accurately to pathological structures deep within the body. In addition, tremor filtration (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11), motion scaling (2,(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18), an ergonomically comfortable environment (19), and an added wrist joint incorporated into surgical robots aid in surgeon precision.…”
