Abstract:
Telerobotic, telesurgical, and surgical robotic devices, systems, and methods selectively calibrate end effector jaws by bringing the jaw elements into engagement with each other. Commanded torque signals may bring the end effector elements into engagement while monitoring the resulting position of a drive system, optionally using a second derivative of the torque/position relationship so as to identify an end effector engagement position. Calibration can allow the end effector engagement position to correspond to a nominal closed position of an input handle by compensating for wear on the end effector, the end effector drive system, then manipulator, the manipulator drive system, the manipulator/end effector interfacing, and manufacturing tolerances.

Claim (Index 16):
The method of  claim 11 , the robotic manipulator comprising a drive system to drive the end effector, the calibrating the end effector comprising monitoring movement of the drive system when driving the end effector, and identifying a change in torque applied by the drive system during the monitoring.
