Abstract
A system comprises an input device structurally configured to be utilized by an operator to control a medical device. The system further comprises a motion sensor associated with the input device and configured to detect a displacement distance of the input device. The system further comprises a control unit configured to determine a velocity cap defining a maximum velocity of the medical device based on the detected displacement distance. The control system is further configured to control movement of the medical device based on the velocity cap.
