摘要：
Embodiments of systems, methods, and computer-readable media for real-time winding analysis for knot detection are disclosed. For example, one embodiment of the present invention includes a method having the steps of receiving a first wrapping signal indicating a first wrapping of the simulated thread around a second tool to create a first loop. The method further includes determining a first wrapping direction based at least in part on the first wrapping signal receiving a first tightening signal indicating a pulling of a first end of the simulated thread through the first loop determining a first half-hitch based at least in part on the first winding direction and the first tightening signal and outputting the first half-hitch. In another embodiment, a computer-readable media includes code for a carrying out such a method.
