Multi-user control system for surgical robotics
This project upgraded a surgical telementoring platform to support real-time, multi-user collaboration among remote medical experts. Built with Unity and ROS, the architecture synchronizes complex surgical states across VR headsets and PC interfaces with strict low-latency requirements.
Critical was a secure dual-robot control system that allows operators to safely toggle between robot arms. To coordinate distributed inputs, a robust rights management architecture was implemented using a request-response model.
This ensures that only one user holds control privileges at any given time, featuring a strict "Security Mode" for explicit access requests and a hierarchical "Surgery Mode" that allows lead operators to instantly override controls to prevent input conflicts.
