Medical

Agile Planet principals analyzed the industrial robotics offering across various vendors to develop a solution for robotic patient positioning in proton therapy. Our work spanned requirements and request for proposal (RFP) development, detailed simulations and analysis to support the system design, and an integration strategy.

Agile Planet principals led the robotics, simulation, safety, and software development for the trauma pod concept prototype. Trauma pod is a teleoperated operating room with a remote surgeon and safe robotic automation that responds to the surgeon needs in a timely fashion.
