Medical technologies and surgical robotics
Medical technologies that make it possible to robotize human processes, such as surgery. These are technologically advanced techniques that allow the surgeon to perform surgical procedures very accurately. The surgical instrument is attached to the robot's arms and the specialist manipulates it by remote control.
These are the services that our research groups can develop. For customized information on the services, please contact us.
