Space technology in the operating room medical robotics at DLR ( MIRO Innovation Lab)

Find out how a bold vision became a success story The DLR Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics has been researching robotic arms since the 1990s originally for use in space. It was a long and ambitious journey before these lightweight robotic arms could be used on earth and finally in operating theaters, a journey that required concentrated robotics expertise, interdisciplinary cooperation and ultimately a successful technology transfer. After all, outstanding research results are particularly useful when they lead to usable products. Find out more here:
