    MIRA surgical robotic platform

    Nov 2, 2020

    MIRA ("miniaturized in vivo robotic assistant") is an investigational robot that will enable surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgeries in any hospital or surgery center, without the need for a dedicated space or for the infrastructure typically required for other “mainframe” robotic systems. Weighing only two pounds, the miniature single incision platform has full robotic capabilities, and can easily be moved from room to room.
