| contents | Realistic real-time surgical simulators play an increasingly important role in surgical robotics research, such as surgical robot learning and automation, and surgical skills assessment. Although there are a number of existing surgical simulators for research, they generally lack the ability to simulate the diverse types of objects and contact-rich manipulation tasks typically present in surgeries, such as tissue cutting and blood suction. In this work, we introduce CRESSim, a realistic surgical simulator based on PhysX 5 for the da Vinci Research Kit (dVRK) that enables simulating various contact-rich surgical tasks involving different surgical instruments, soft tissue, and body fluids. The real-world dVRK console and the master tool manipulator (MTM) robots are incorporated into the system to allow for teleoperation through virtual reality (VR). To showcase the advantages and potentials of the simulator, we present three examples of surgical tasks, including tissue grasping and deformation, blood suction, and tissue cutting. These tasks are performed using the simulated surgical instruments, including the large needle driver, suction irrigator, and curved scissor, through VR-based teleoperation. |
