Brain Navi Biotechnology, a Taiwan-based startup that creates navigation robots, has secured a CE mark for its robotic-assisted surgical robot for brain surgery. WHAT IT DOES Founded in 2015, Brain Navi mainly designs and develops medical devices that can assist surgeons during medico-surgical interventions. One of its products, the NaoTrac, is equipped with a high-precision navigation system called Surface Mapping Auto-Registration Technology or SMART. The platform combines machine vision, robotic technology, and algorithms to achieve real-time imaging, precise surgery, and minimally invasive outcomes during surgery. It allows the robotic technology to recognise surgical instruments within seconds and to conduct patient…
