Johns Hopkins and Stanford's SRT: New Surgical Robot Automates Delicate Tasks with AI
Jul 16, 2024, 06:56 PM
A new surgical robot, the Surgical Robot Transformer (SRT), has been introduced, automating delicate surgical tasks using end-to-end imitation learning. Developed through a collaboration between Johns Hopkins and Stanford, the SRT can perform complex procedures such as knot tying, needle manipulation, and soft-tissue manipulation autonomously. This innovation represents a significant advancement in robotic-assisted surgery, leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance precision and efficiency in healthcare. The SRT operates on the da Vinci robot platform, making tiny incisions with a big impact on surgical outcomes.
