Technological advances continue to drive growing adoption of robotics in healthcare, particularly for surgical applications. Robots promise to enhance precision and safety, with 5% to 10% of robot-assisted procedures reportedly resulting in positive patient outcomes.
The global market for surgical robots is about $18 billion and could grow to $83 billion by 2032, according to Statzon. In addition, a Bain & Co. study found that 78% of U.S. surgeons are interested in robotics, but many procedures have yet to benefit from automation.
Robotics developers, suppliers, and integrators, as well as healthcare providers and practitioners, should understand how the latest, best-in-class motion-control components can improve accuracy and enable the next generation of patient care.
Learn more about motion control for healthcare robotics applications in a free webinar at noon EDT on Wednesday, April 17.
How to build better healthcare robotics
In this webinar, Carsten Horn, applications engineering manager at maxon, and Dario Renggli, business development engineer at maxon, will join Eugene Demaitre, editorial director for robotics at WTWH Media.
Horn has more than 20 years of engineering and research and development experience with robotics. Renggli specializes in healthcare applications and works at maxon’s headquarters in Switzerland. They will discuss the following topics:
- Trends in customer demands and designing for the future
- The industry’s needs for precise actuation and motion-control systems
- The pace of healthcare robotics development
- How regulatory requirements affect the design of surgical systems
- Common challenges for healthcare robot controls
- Considerations for off-the-shelf components and subassemblies versus custom designs
- The growing importance of software and artificial intelligence
- How to identify and partner with product and service providers
