RoboticScope

RoboticScope is a hands-free 3D visualisation system for microsurgery designed to prioritise ergonomics for the surgeon. It consists of three precisely coordinated components: Head-Mounted Display (HMD), robotic arm and full digital camera unit.

Description
New era of true digital surgical microscopes

RoboticScope is a microscopic visualisation system that replaces the traditional combination of fixed eyepieces and microscope with a Head-Mounted Display (HMD), robotic arm and a full digital camera system. The robotic camera unit transmits high-resolution digital image of the surgical field to the HMD, where two digital micro displays present the surgeon live 3D footage of the surgical area. The surgeons can guide the camera intuitively with gentle head gestures, always keeping an eye on the operating field and without having to move their hands off the surgical field.

Sounds like the future? With RoboticScope it is the present.

Head-Mounted Display

The surgeon’s field of vision is fully independent of their posture. When actively changing the camera position by pressing the footswitch and moving their head, the viewing angle changes. The hands remain free to operate, the surgical instruments stay with the patient and the surgeon maintains a comfortable working position.

User Interface

All important functions and movements of the RoboticScope can be activated hands-free using an intuitive user interface, displayed onto the HMD micro displays. There are no complex submenus, all adjustments can be made with the HMD through simple and intuitive head gestures.

 

Robotic arm & camera

The 6-axis robotic arm allows for exact 3D movements of the camera unit above the operational field. Through controlled movements over the surgical field, the camera, with its merged 4K resolution, can be positioned easily into viewing angles that could be hard to reach with a traditional microscope.
