1. A surgical robotic system, comprising
a robotic device having
a first robotic arm having a plurality of robotic arm actuators; and
a second robotic arm having a plurality of robotic arm actuators, the plurality of robot arm actuators of each of the first and second robotic arms includes a plurality of hinged actuators, each of the plurality of hinged actuators comprises:
a first body comprising a proximal connection component;
a second body comprising a distal connection component;
a bearing system constraining the motion of the first body relative to the second body in all degrees of freedom except rotation about one axis perpendicular to a distal-proximal axis of the robotic actuator;
a pulley operably coupled with at least one of the first body and the second body;
an actuator cable configured to actuate the pulley; and
at least one contoured surface defined by the hinged actuator and forming a contoured pathway to allow a plurality of additional cables to pass through the contoured pathway from one or more proximal systems coupled to the proximal connection component to one or more distal systems coupled to the distal connection component, a shape and a position of the contoured pathway is formed with lengths of the plurality of additional cables being substantially constant for substantially an entire range of motion for which the hinged actuator is used;
a camera assembly having a camera housing for mounting a first camera element;
a second camera element;
a light source; and
a temperature sensor for measuring a temperature of a portion of an external environment or of a portion of the camera housing; and
a pan and tilt system coupled to the camera housing for providing at least two degrees of freedom of movement of the camera housing;
wherein the camera assembly and the robotic device are sized and configured to be inserted within a patient.
