Researchers from Johns Hopkins University and Stanford University have published new research showing that AI surgical robots can perform human-like tasks. After learning how to perform the procedure from just watching the video until it is possible to sew up the surgical wound precisely
The research team tested this idea with the da Vinci Surgical System, a system for robots to assist surgeons in performing surgery. It is controlled through a computer in the form of 4 mechanical arms to help perform surgery in complex or difficult to reach areas.
Instead of having to input data and commands for the robot to learn every move. Instead, the team used narrative learning techniques by compiling hundreds of videos recorded from doctors’ wrist-worn cameras. To teach robots how to hold needles and sew wounds based on human hand movements.
Assistant Professor Axel Krieger from Johns Hopkins University said: “It’s amazing that we can just feed the camera images and the AI robot can predict the movements needed for the surgery. In addition, the AI robot can learn techniques that the research team does not teach, such as dropping a needle. It will automatically pick it up and continue working. This is considered an important step in the future of medicine.
However, even the concept of robots holding knives and needles around the patient It is also controlled by AI It may be scary. But the research team says the accuracy of the machines could make them outperform humans in some cases. and giving medical staff more time to deal with unexpected problems. Including difficult surgery that machines cannot yet perform.
