Abstract
A robotic surgical system includes an instrument driver and an instrument assembly operatively coupled to the instrument driver such that mechanisms of the instrument driver operate or control movement, operation, or both, of components of the instrument assembly. The instrument assembly components include an elongate flexible guide instrument and an image capture device, wherein the image capture device is configured to capture images of a forward-oriented field of view. The system further comprises a controller operatively coupled to the instrument driver and configured to operate the instrument driver mechanisms in a manner so as to control advancement of the instrument assembly toward a target along a trajectory that maintains the target in the forward-oriented field of view of the image capture device.
