END EFFECTOR AND REMOTE CONTROL APPARATUS

摘要

The present invention includes a tip unit with a transformable member which is physically changed by a target object in contact with the tip unit; a gauge display unit displaying the gauge information caused by the physical change of the transformable member; and a connecting rod unit which is connected to the tip unit and operates the tip unit. The present invention includes an end effecter displaying the physical information, which is changed by the target object in contact with the tip unit, on the gauge display unit; endoscope obtaining images of the tip unit of the end effecter and the gauge display unit; and a manipulator with a control unit which controls the transmission of the images obtained by the endoscope and the operation of the tip unit and the endoscope. The present invention enables the accuracy of detecting of the physical information caused by the target object in contact with the tip unit to be improved. In other words, the influence of noise can be reduced as a process converting the physical information, which is detected when the physical information of the target object is obtained by an external master unit, into electrical signals is omitted. Furthermore, a process transmitting the electrical signals caused by the detection of the physical information between a robot of a remote control device and a console by transmitting the physical information between the robot of the remote control device and the console with the images of the end effecter so that an information flow between the robot and the console can be simplified and the network traffic can be reduced.
