Products

LaparoGuard AR

Operating-room safety enhancement that provides patient-specific Safe and Danger Zone annotation, real-time instrument tracking, and AR telestration with audio/visual notifications to support minimally invasive and robotic procedures.

SuturePro

Semi-automated suturing device designed to automate mesh fixation for open, laparoscopic, and robotic ventral hernia repair, aiming to reduce operative time and standardize stitch placement.

Instrument tracker clamp (single-piece replacement)

One-piece clamp design for tracker fixation to mitigate risk of component separation and integrate with existing instrument tracking platforms.

Organ retention netting prototype

Proof-of-principle development of an organ retention device progressed through market assessment, prototyping, and in-situ porcine testing.

LaparoGuard

LaparoGuard AR is an operating room safety enhancement and surgical navigation system that alerts users when tracked instruments enter surgeon-defined Safe or Danger Zones, adding spatial awareness and confidence to laparoscopic and robotic surgical protocols.

Suture Pro

A semi-automated suturing device designed for open, laparoscopic, and robotic ventral hernia repair to automate mesh fixation, reduce operative time, and standardize stitch placement.
