Introduction
As time passes by, the development of technology in the world grows. This growth includes all aspects, such as communication, transportation, health, and so on. In health field, the development of technology is mandatory to face sickness, especially the new, complex and far more complicated to handle than the predecessors. Practice of surgery to human body has been done a lot as of late and these practices are not easy, which means only those with the knowledge and the experience in surgery field are permitted to do surgeries. The operations that needs to be done become more complicated and dangerous because the body part that needs surgery are the vital ones such as liver and heart. Because of that, the mistake in surgery must be minimalized and if possible, not to occur at all. Researchers in biomedical engineering field then create technologies that can optimize the work performance of doctors to get the maximum result for the patients.
On the start of twenty first century (2000), da Vinci Surgical System is made by an American company, Intuitive Surgical, with approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration. Da Vinci Surgical System is a system that makes the human as an operator and the robot will do the surgery to the patient. Da Vinci Surgical System makes the operator control a console, similar to PS console. The console also already has the surgical tool that wants to be used for the surgery and the robot already has an operating system that is capable of minimalizing the error or mistake done on a surgery. Da Vinci Robotical Surgery is used to do a surgical operation on a vital part of body or other parts. By June 30th , 2014, there was a total of 3,102 units worldwide with the following details : 2,153 units in the United States, 499 units in Europe, 183 units in Japan, and the last 267 units in the other parts of the world. The da Vinci system however, has been criticised for its cost and for a number of issues related to its performance. Da Vinci Surgical System also used to have a rival system called ZEUS Robotic Surgical System, which is discontinued on 2003.

Overview
Da Vinci Surgical System is designed to improve laparoscopy. The system changes the old method where surgeon needs to use hand-held long-shafted instruments with a nearby 2D monitor to see an anatomy in image form to a new style where the new method is that surgeon can operate from a seated position at the console with eyes and hands positioned in line with instruments and using controls to move the instruments and camera.
By providing the surgeon superior visualization, enhanced dexterity, better precision and ergonomic comfort, the da Vinci Surgical System makes it possible for more surgeons to perform minimally invasive procedures. For a patient, the system offer the benefits of minimal invasive procedure such as less blood loss, less pain, and less time at the hospital after surgery.

Legality
As a health related item, da Vinci Surgical System already met approval from United States Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA). The item has been cleared for use in surgical procedures as following : urological, general laparoscopic, gynelogic laparoscopic, transoral otolaryngology  restricted to benign and malignant tumors (T1, T2) and general thorascoscopic, as well as thoracoscopically assisted cardiotomy procedures. In conjunction with adjunctive mediastinotomy, it can be used to perform coronary anastomosis during cardiac revascularization. In all surgical use mentioned above, the system is exclusive for adult and pediatric use with exception of transoral otolarynology surgical procedures.
The da Vinci Surgical System is intended to be used by physicians in an operating room environment, with accordance to representative, specific procedures in Professional Instruction of Use.
While clinical studies supports the da Vinci Surgical System, individual results may apply. Therefore, risks of complications exist in surgeries. Before going to do surgery, asks all possible treatments to the doctor. Understanding the risks of each treatment allows one to make the best decision for their health case. Da Vinci Surgical System may not be applicable to everyone, which means it might not be applicable to one’s condition.
With the above, the da Vinci Surgical System has attained legal permission to be produced in mass and used for public in health field, to be precise the surgeon field.

Mechanism
As like any other surgical devices, da Vinci Surgical System has it’s own system that required the surgeon’s console to be as the exact same room with the patient. The console equipped also with a patient-side cart and forue interactive robotic arms controlled by the surgery leading doctor from the console. The arms are the tool that can hold an objects, also can working as a scalpels, scissors, bovies, and etc. the surgeon use the controller on getting the arm to maneuver as well as what we saw on a video game, but it’s on real life and death condition. Also the instruments (the arms) are imitating what do the surgeon hands are doing.
The method that’s use in here is something called haptic feedback. Which like we already explain before, is the condition where the arms are imitating what are the surgeon’s hands are doing. This kind of feedback will make the surgeons feels like he really directly operating the patients with his own arms, therefore the “human touch” for the surgery will never be distinguished.
The figure below clearly explained about how the haptic feedback will work. First, the surgeon move his hand on the console, then the instrument imitating it, and giving visual feedback to the doctors and so on.

In order to supporting the mechanism, we need more equipment that collaborating each other on making the console work successfully. As you could saw on the figure above, there is something called haptic user interface (master). This interface is able on providing a surgeon with force sensation, regarding to surface roughness, the tissue texture and any other thing. The interface can elevating within the radius 180°, including forward and backward.

On the other hand, The sensor works on giving multiple of data towards the surgeon, so the surgeon can now the status of the patient. This also a crucial equipment, since this will effect the surgeons act on determining what to do and what is not supposed to do.

From all of the text above, we can conclude that this da Vinci Surgical System really helps human on doing surgery since it will minimize the wound surgery, also minimize the error done by human and so on.

Medical Use
This biomedical devices contribute a lot in surgical. It could make a long distance operations between the doctor and his/her patient becomes possible. However, Da vinci surgical system needs the patient access first, then the doctor will give command to this devices  from a far distances to do some operations.  In other word Da vinci surgical system could allow the doctors to perform telesurgery to the patient even they are in the different country.  In fact Dr. Marescaux and a team from IRCAD have done telesurgery in 2001. They succesfully perform telesurgery between New york and Strasbourg. This event was called “Operation Linbergh” and considered as a milestone of global telesurgery. To get this achievement they used a zeus telemnipulator and advanced asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) combining with a high speed fiber optic connection with  an average delay of 156 ms.
In addition, the da Vinci Surgical System has shown numerous successful result in surgeries.

Future Application
Da vinci surgical system cannot perform surgery autonomously. Even though the name is ‘robotic surgery’ that usually represent an advanced technology which can perform on its own. It was not designed as an autonomous system in the first place. It’s controlled by human operator for all input, so it lacks of a decision making software. In other words to do some operation it still depends on human intervention. This devices equipped by weak Al software, which means it can not attempt to perform cognitive abilities of human in full range. However in principle the da Vinci Surgical System could still perform in partially or even completely autonomously. In simple words, this devices can not work by itself. Da Vinci Surgical System will replicate the movement of surgeons hands through surgeon’s direct input with the combination of micro instruments on its tips.

Criticism
Despite being useful to the surgeon field, it’s not without issue. This has led to critics that goes into multiple aspects. First is the difficulty to learn the item, which is pretty difficult to learn. Second is the fact that it uses proprietary software which hinders freedom in system modification. The cost is also another issue, where each one costs 2 million dollars.
The manufacturer also received critic for short-cutting the Food and Drug Administration approval using a process called premarket notification, which claims the product is similar to already approved ones. They’re also accused of providing insufficient training. Patients also reports that they get injured by the system having stray electrical current released from inappropriate parts of the surgical tips of the system.
From a social side, the disadvantage of the system is that it has potential to dissolve the creative frrodoms of surgeons, as stated by Timothy Lenoir, one of the most professional individual autonomous occupation ever exist.
In addition to all above, Food and Drug Administration also running checks related to da Vinci Surgical System, including death from surgeries with the device. A number of lawsuit related to the system is also underway.
