摘要：
Described embodiments include a method. The method includes initiating a hand tremor characterization mode of a handheld or hand operated surgical instrument having a working tip. The method includes detecting a hand tremble motion imparted by a user during the characterization mode. The method includes recognizing a pattern in the detected hand tremble motion and saving the recognized pattern in a computer storage media. The method includes initiating a hand tremor suppression mode of the surgical instrument. The method includes detecting a hand tremble motion in the surgical instrument imparted by a user during the suppression mode. The method includes retrieving the recognized pattern from the computer storage media. The method includes stabilizing the working tip by activating an actuator, the activation responsive to the recognized pattern and to the detected user-imparted hand tremble motion during the suppression mode.
