systems like the davinci allow more precise movements than a human hand could ever possibly execute.
they dampen out hand tremors and scale the movements of the doctor's hands, eg the doctor moves the stick 6 inches and it gets scaled to a 6mm movement at the robot end. VERY precise.
This site is a good resource except for the snarky comments by the author. They come off as being uninformed and immature.
