US Patent 11880513 System and method for motion mode management

Systems and methods for motion mode management include a computer-assisted device having an input control, a repositionable structure, and a controller coupled to the input control and the repositionable structure. The controller is configured to detect motion of the input control for controlling motion of the repositionable structure and in response to determining that the motion of the input control is likely to be confused with a first portion of a motion of the input control for indicating that a mode of operation of the computer-assisted device is to be changed, temporarily disable mode switching in response to motion of the input control.
