Abstract

The effect of hand-eye colocation in performing dexterous fine movements such as microsurgical manipulation is studied under a novel digital stereo microscope. Hand motion data is captured under conditions of hand-eye colocation and separation. Both configurations are tested with monoscopic and stereoscopic vision. A set of microsurgical task abstractions are created to reduce the effect of prior expertise. Finally the captured motion data is analyzed to determine the effect of colocation and stereopsis for surgical motion tasks.
