Abstract

Disturbance compensation in computer-assisted devices include an articulated arm comprising one or more first joints and one or more second joints and one or more processors coupled to the articulated arm. The articulated arm is configured to support an end effector. The one or more processors when executing instructions are configured to: detect a disturbance to the one or more first joints, the disturbance causing a point of interest associated with the end effector to move; determine a predicted motion of the point of interest based on the detected disturbance; and drive the one or more second joints to move the point of interest based on an error in a position of the point of interest indicated by the predicted motion.
