Challenge

Vitreoretinal microsurgery requires utmost precision, yet manual techniques are limited by natural hand tremor, risking tissue damage. Robotic systems can improve accuracy, but existing input devices are often generic and not tailored to the specific phases or ergonomic needs of eye surgery. They lack real-time, phase-specific feedback, making complex steps like subretinal injections for age-related macular degeneration especially challenging.

Innovation

Emiras redefines the standard for robotic microsurgery with its fusion of human-centric design and engineering excellence. Unlike one-size-fits-all controllers, Emiras employs a stylus-style interface crafted to mirror classical surgical handling, instantly familiar to eye surgeons. The innovation lies in the dynamic reduction and decoupling of movement degrees of freedom (DOF), aligning input exactly with the operative phases. By closing the chasm between human skill and robot capability, this patented platform paves the way for safer, more effective, and more accessible microsurgical innovation.
