Our robotics & digital community

Our expertise spans Surgical Robotics (OTTAVA™), Flexible Robotics (MONARCH™), Ortho Robotics (VELYS™), and Digital Solutions, based across innovation hubs in Boston, Cincinnati, Palm Beach Gardens, FL, and Silicon Valley.

Flexible Robotics

Help us change the trajectory of lung cancer. The groundbreaking MONARCH™ Platform combines traditional endoscopic views, robotics, and computer-assisted navigation to provide continuous vision during diagnostic bronchoscopy procedures. It is designed to more accurately access, diagnose, and treat small, hard-to-reach peripheral lung nodules.

Orthopaedic Robotics

Work on the breakthrough VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution that helps simplify surgeons’ existing workflow, and is designed around how they plan, execute, and perform surgery for total knee replacement. Used with the ATTUNE® Knee, this first-of-its-kind, table-mounted robotic technology helps accurately resect bones that align and position the implant relative to the soft tissue without the need for pre-operative imaging.

Surgical Robotics

Our surgical robotics are redefining what’s possible, enabling us to drive innovations that enhance surgical skills and improve efficiency, accuracy, and patient outcomes. Join us in advancing the development of OTTAVA™, our next-generation surgical robotic platform, which we believe has the potential to revolutionize surgery and provide optimal outcomes.
