Spinal cord injury (SCI) affects millions people and their families world-wide. These individuals face serious secondary complications due to loss of mobility such as brittle bones, bowel and bladder dysfunction, chronic pain, and recurrent infections that lead to a 30 percent annual hospitalization risk.
Exoskeletons enable upright walking, which plays a vital role in reducing these secondary health complications while promoting strength, confidence, and quality of life.
Even with robust insurance reimbursement now available in many countries, today’s exoskeletons remain too complex, too slow to put on and take off, and not designed for everyday life. Our mission is to change that.

• Compliant endoscope and cannula manipulator for uniportal surgery

Uniportal endoscopic spine surgery is ergonomically demanding: the surgeon controls both endoscope and cannula through a single corridor with one hand, adjusting the view while actively manipulating tissue. Existing robotic systems are built for multiport soft-tissue procedures and do not address the constraints of uniportal interventions or active cannula manipulation. This work presents a robotic holder designed for uniportal interventions that can operate autonomously or in collaboration with surgeons or possibly external robotic systems (co-robotics). It addresses both the ergonomic limitations of hand-held instruments and the lack of cannula manipulation in existing robotic systems.

Our agentic AI combines classical robotics with modern AI approaches, choosing the right method for each step. Where possible, we connect directly to the machines the robot serves. Their sensor data, together with feedback from the people on the shop floor, lets our robots learn faster and work more reliably than conventional  methods.
