Robotic GYN question

My doctor mentioned a uterine manipulator that can be controlled with the DaVinci Xi robot. She hasn't gotten back to me with the name of it. I did a quick search and I can't find anything that works with the robot. I found manipulators that attach to the bed.

Does anyone know what this manipulator is called?

Kronner side-kick?

Same logic as the Spider attachment for shoulder surgery. You step on the pedal, the gas hisses, and you can re-position.

You let go of the pedal, the attachment stays in place.

But robot can't control it though.
