Conclusion

     In Conclusion Robotics is a very interesting subject field and it helps a lot of people in the world today.  Robotic surgery has advanced in great measures since the first robot ever made, and it is fascinating to see how they work.  Robotics is so incredible that people all over the world are learning more and more about this topic.  The Da Vinci robot is so fascinating and it’s amazing to know that a robot can perform a surgery just like a human could, but they can perform it even better.  Though robots have been around for a while the quality of robots has improved greatly over the years and has greatly affected our society.  The surgical robots have been known for performing many procedures, but also at a high cost to the personnel needing the required surgery.  Some people might think it scary to have their surgery done by a robot but many people will find fascinating.  The world today has changed tremendously since robots were first introduced and I believe that the robotic industry will continue to increase and be greatly helpful in the future years and generations.  Robotics and the industry is amazing and the people who have come up with these ideas are amazing as well.  In the robotic surgeons they are more precise at the surgery and the work that they are required to do.  I think it would be amazing to be one of the surgeons who is controlling the robot realizing that the robot is doing the surgery so all the surgeon has to do is control the hands and what is it doing.  The world today has greatly increased in technology and it’s amazing to see the great effect it has on the United States society and each individual person in the world today.

Honestly in the field of robotics, I didn’t really know anything.  But I’ve found it extremely interesting to learn about the robotic industry and to discover how amazing this industry really is to learn about.  The field of robotic surgery has been extremely advanced and it’s amazing to realize how much technology and the robotic industry has improved.  A lot of people don’t really thing of robots as being useful in our society but this made me realize that robot’s help a lot in our industry today.  The people who make robots impress me because the things they have to figure out to configure these robots are extremely difficult and impressive how they do this.  It’s amazing to see these robots in action and I had no clue that they were such a popular industry and how important these are in our society today.

There are many things I didn't know about robots or in the field of robots that there are many different types of robotic surgeons.  One of the main things I didn't know is the Da Vinci surgeon is that it is growing in popularity.  It's amazing how the field of technology is growing and the robotic surgery industry is so fascinating to learn about and discover.  The Da Vinci robotic surgery system is a system of robots that is used for making a new approach for minimally invasive surgeries.  These robots are controlled by a surgeon and the surgeons also have to go through extra process to learn how to control and work the robot.  The Da Vinci robots are currently operating in several thousand hospitals with an estimate of 200,000 surgeries performed and conducted in the year 2012.  This is one of the things I didn’t know about the robot industry.  

The last thing I didn’t know is that the robotic surgeons perform many surgeries some of the main surgeries it performs are prostatectomies, and increasingly for valve repair and gynecologic surgical procedures.  Like I’ve said before surgeons have to go through special training to understand how to use and work the robot and to know how to perform surgeries using the robot.

The Da Vinci Robot approved to be used in the United states in 2001, is one of the most well know robots to do surgery on patients.  It's precise and does good work on the patients.  The Da Vinci robot is an amazing technology device that many hospitals and surgeons use today.  Amazingly Robots are becoming more and more popular in the medical field and help many surgeons today so the surgery that is needed for any patient. 

Many robots have hands that are built like human hands to do more precise work.  Building the robot like a human had lets the robot reach on places and have more control over the surgery that it is performing.  It's amazing how technology has improved and the robot has become very popular mostly in the United States but as well as in other countries.  The robotic surgery field has had an amazing impact on the world today.

 The surgeons who work the robots are medically trained professionals in the field or surgery that they are working on.  Besides the training that they normally have to become a Doctor or surgeon they have to have additional trainings to be able to work these medical robots.  In the room the Doctors oversee the work of the Robot to make sure they are doing the surgery the right and correct way. 

In the United States Robotic Surgery is an amazing technology upgrade.  Having a Robot do surgery is an amazing thing to comprehend.  It's incredible to realize that Robots today in the twenty-first century can actually do surgery just like surgeons do.  Robotic surgery today is one of the most known technological advances in the world and it continues to grow very rapidly.  

The Da Vinci robot is one of the most known Robots in the medical field today.  It’s amazing how this Robot does surgery on the patient using precise moves.  This video demonstrates how the robot works on a patient while the surgeon controls the motion of the robot.  Da Vinci is an amazing creation and a huge advance in technology.

Computer Final Project

Robotic Surgery-Computer Final Project

In our society today, the merging of computers and robots has become a new frontier in the United States.  Robots are used in many different ways and in many different occupations.  One of the biggest uses for robots is in the medical field for surgeries and in hospitals.  Robotic surgeries, also known as computer assisted surgery, are major technological improvements in today’s society.  The reason why the surgery robots were invented was to overcome the many limitations of minimally-invasive surgery, and to better the many capabilities of the surgeons who perform open surgery.  The history of this robot is very deep and complex. Although there are many different types of robots who perform multiple operations the main history of them are the same.  In the year 1985 a robot was used for a brain biopsy and it placed a needle using CT guidance it was called the PUMA 560.  Another Robot to perform a surgery is called the PROBOT, which was used to perform a prostatic surgery by Dr. Senthil Nathan at a hospital in London.  This robot was created at the Imperial College in London.  The medical robots of the twenty-first century have its advantages and disadvantages.  With the cost of the robot at an extremely high price of $1,390,000 and the disposable ones at $1,500 per procedure, the price of any procedure for the patient is significantly higher.  For the doctors who are watching over and tracking the procedure of the surgical robot, they need to have additional training to operate this system of robotic surgery.  People have different opinions on this subject of robotic “surgeons” and many people wonder if the purchases of these systems are worthwhile or if they are just a waste of money.  Robotic surgery today is an amazing process and is an amazing procedure to think about!  Its incredible how much medical technology has changed and how this industry has advanced.  Robotics in general is a fascinating subject and is well known by many in the United States and even in foreign countries.
