Optical surgical instrument tracking system based on the principle of stereo vision

Abstract: Optical tracking systems are widely adopted in surgical navigation. An optical tracking system is designed based on the principle of stereo vision with high-precision and low cost. This system uses optical infrared LEDs that are installed on the surgical instrument as markers and a near-infrared filter is added in front of the Bumblebee2 stereo camera lens to eliminate the interference of ambient light. The algorithm based on the region growing method is designed and used for the marker’s pixel coordinates’ ex… Show more

“…The tracking systems applied in most commercial navigation equipment is the active optical tracking system[ 18 - 20 ]. The active optical tracking system is superior to other methods, such as electromagnetic tracking systems, but it is expensive and inconvenient for further development[ 19 ]. Our team has recently designed an optical tracking method based on binocular stereo vision with a high-resolution ratio and low cost.…”

“…Tracking the 6DoF pose of the rigid object in real-time is a central ingredient in the interaction design of MR-based systems with numerous applications in robotics, video games, medical navigation and human computer interaction (HCI) [9,13,15,19,27,33]. Existing state-of-art solutions commonly require the combination of various electronic sensors, such as infrared sensors, inertial measurement units, magnetic sensors, acoustic sensors and depth sensors.…”
