An assistance device (10) for providing imaging support to an operator during a surgical intervention is described, comprising an endoscope (12) with a camera (16) for generating image data; a viewing device (20) for showing a moving image; a manipulator (14) coupled to the endoscope (12) for the purpose of moving the endoscope (12); and a control system (22) for controlling the manipulator (14) according to a control command, in such a way that the moving image shown on the viewing device (20) can be influenced by moving the endoscope (12). The assistance device (10) further comprises a sensor unit (32) which detects an object (36, 58) moved for performing the surgical intervention and which generates a movement signal corresponding to the movement of the object, on the basis of which signal the control system (22) generates the control command; and an operating element (28) which can be actuated by the operator in order to set a release state in which the control of the manipulator (14) by the control system (22) is released for moving the endoscope (12). |
