Abstract

This application relates to a method of mitigating a collision of a slave robot for surgery. In one aspect, the method includes obtaining an external torque generated when the slave robot collides with another object or a person and obtaining a joint angle of the slave robot. The method may also include calculating a target joint angle for changing a position of the slave robot based on the obtained external torque and the obtained joint angle, such that the external torque is attenuated. The method may further include controlling the slave robot to change the position thereof from the obtained joint angle to the calculated target joint angle.
