More Information
Summary:A robotic instrument system having a controller including a master input device (12), and an instrument driver in communication with the controller. The instrument driver includes a guide instrument interface including two or more guide instrument drive elements responsive to control signals generated, at least in part, by the master input device for manipulating a guide instrument (18) operatively coupled to the instrument interface, and sheath instrument interface including two or more sheath instrument drive elements responsive to control signals generated, at least in part, by the master input device for manipulating a sheath instrument (30) operatively coupled to the instrument interface, wherein the sheath instrument drive elements are controlled independently of the guide instrument control elements.
