Robotic devices and systems for performing single incision procedures and natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgical procedures, and methods of configuring robotic devices and systems
Example embodiments relate to surgical systems having an end-effector assembly, first arm assembly, elbow joint section, and second arm assembly. First arm assembly forms a first arm assembly axis. First end of elbow joint section is pivotable relative to its second end. Second arm assembly includes second arm assembly body and first elbow drive assembly. Second arm assembly body forms a second arm assembly axis. First elbow drive assembly includes a first integrated motor and first elbow drive portion. First elbow drive portion is controllable by the first integrated motor to pivotally move the first arm assembly relative to an elbow axis. First arm assembly includes a second elbow drive assembly having a second integrated motor and a second elbow drive portion. Second elbow drive portion is controllable by the second integrated motor to rotate first arm assembly relative to first arm assembly axis.
