Abstract

A method of assessing inter-device communication pairing in a surgical setting, may include transmitting, by a first intelligent medical device, wireless communication data within the surgical setting, receiving, by a second intelligent medical device, the wireless communication data from the first intelligent medical device, determining, by the second intelligent medical device, communication pairing data indicative of an inter-device communication pairing of the second intelligent medical device with the first intelligent medical device, transmitting, by the second intelligent medical device, the communication pairing data to a modular control tower, and displaying, by the modular control tower on a display device, an augmented reality display comprising one or more virtual objects indicative of the inter-device communication pairing. An interactive surgical system may include multiple intelligent medical devices and displays which can form communication pairs in this manner.
