THE FUTURE
Robotic Surgery
principle of master slave manipulator.
The da Vinci system.
The Zeus system
These machines have interface for surgeon which deliver information through computer to robotic arm.
HOLOGRAM PROJECTION SYSTEM
Laparoscopic surgery is growing in such a speed
that 3D image projection system is going to replace
the conventional monitor in near future and surgeon
will get a virtual image in air just above the body of
patient. This new projection system will abolish
all the limitation of current two dimensional image
without depth perception.
