MUMBAI, India, July 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521056628 A) filed by Merai Newage Private Limited, Vapi, Gujarat, on June 12, for 'robotic surgical system for fulcrum-constrained control of surgical instruments.'

Inventor(s) include Vatsa, Abhishek; and Takkalla, Bhanu Prakash Reddy.

The application for the patent was published on July 11, under issue no. 28/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A robotic surgical system (100) includes a patient-side cart (110) with one or more robotic arms, each comprising a surgical instrument (140) with an elongated shaft (220) and an end effector (210). A vision cart (120) processes and displays surgical site images, and a surgeon master console (130) provides control inputs. A controller (302) establishes a coordinate frame at a jaw rotation axis of the surgical instrument (140) and determines jaw and pitch angles based on selected position and orientation inputs. Using spatial relationships between the fulcrum point (406), the pitch joint (408), and the end effector (210), the controller (302) determines position and orientation of the robotic arm (112) and generates control signals to the plurality of actuators (306). The control signals ensure the elongated shaft (220) always passes through fulcrum point without lateral translation, maintaining consistent tool alignment and minimizing forces at the surgical site."
