A surgical system for providing an improved video image of a surgical site including a system controller that receives and processes video images to determine a video signature corresponding to a condition that interferes with a quality of the video images, with the system controller interacting with a video enhancer to enhance the video images from a video capturing device to automatically control the video enhancer to enhance the video images. The surgical system can also review the video images for a trigger event and automatically begin or stop recording of the video images upon occurrenceof the trigger event. 一种用于提供外科手术部位的改进视频图像的外科手术系统，其包括：系统控制器，该系统控制器接收并处理视频图像以确定与干扰视频图像的质量的状况对应的视频签名，其中系统控制器与视频增强器交互以增强来自视频捕获设备的视频图像，以自动控制视频增强器来增强视频图像。外科手术系统还可以回顾用于触发事件的视频图像，并在触发事件发生时自动开始或停止视频图像的记录。
