Abstract

The various embodiments disclosed herein relate to surgical robot positioning systems and devices that aid in the gross positioning of surgical devices during surgical procedures. For example, a gross positioning system for use with a robotic surgical device may include a positioning body, a yaw mechanism operably coupled to the positioning body at a yaw rotational joint, a pitch mechanism operably coupled to the positioning body at a pitch rotational joint, and a plunge mechanism operably coupled to the pitch mechanism, where the plunge mechanism is configured to slide and to be coupleable to the robotic surgical device.
