摘要: In one embodiment, an endoscopic camera for a robotic surgical system includes stereo module mounted to arm of patient side cart. The optical and electro-optic components the are hermetically sealed within first housing. Signals from component travel through traces in ceramic substrate forming A second housing surrounds fibers dispersed between housings provide lighting body cavity. may be sterilized by autoclave.
