Abstract
An endoscopic system includes an elongate shaft, a pull wire that runs a length of the elongate shaft, a handle coupled to a proximal portion of the elongate shaft, the handle housing a proximal portion of the pull wire, the handle being couplable to a robotic driver configured to tension the pull wire to cause articulation of the elongate shaft, and one or more conductors that run the length of the elongate shaft, the one or more conductors being electrically coupled to the pull wire at a distal portion of the elongate shaft and configured to form part of a closed electrical circuit with the pull wire.
