Embedded Control System of Digital Operating Table

Aiming at the existing problems in the control of traditional operating table such as the lack of accuracy in the motion control of table, the poor display of objects' status in the operation space, the unstructured and incompatible interfaces for multiple digital devices and apparatus, the control system based on the embedded technology on implemented on the prototype of a novel digital operating table. This system can precisely control the positions and orientations of the digitization surgery platform which has 4 DOF as follows: the horizontal translation, the vertical translation, the pitching and the rolling. In the meantime, there are also interactive functions such as button control, speech control, PC control and LCD display that provide a good human-computer interaction for surgeon's operation during the procedure.
