A robotic medical device system includes a robotic medical device and a controller. The controller is configured to control, in response to one or more control signals, movement of the robotic medical device to maintain a substantially constant overshoot for different step responses of the robotic medical device system independent of variations in a delay associated with control of the robotic medical device, the one or more control signals received via a network.

Medical device systems, methods and computer-readable mediums for operating the same

A method for using a control center at a remote site to control operation of a robotic medical device system at a local site includes transmitting a control signal from the control center to the robotic medical device system, determining a delay in transmission of the control signal, comparing the delay to a threshold delay value and operating the robotic medical device system based on the comparison of the delay to the threshold delay value.

Remote communications and control system for robotic interventional procedures

An interlocking system for a joystick in a catheter procedure system includes a joystick configured to generate a first voltage output signal based on a linear activation of the joystick and a second voltage output signal based on a rotational activation of the joystick. A joystick cover is disposed over the joystick and includes an upper portion having an electrode plating on an inner surface of the upper portion and a lower portion having an inner surface. A capacitive touch detection circuit is coupled to the electrode plating of the upper portion of the joystick cover and is mounted on the inner surface of the lower portion of the joystick cover. The capacitive touch detection circuit is configured to detect a proximal change in capacitance in the electrode plating of the upper portion of the joystick cover and to generate a touch output signal to indicate whether a change in capacitance has been detected. A signal enable circuit is coupled to the joystick and the capacitive touch detection circuit and is configured to generate a linear enable voltage output signal and a rotational enable voltage output signal based on whether a change in capacitance has been detected.
