  • The robot features a microscale 3D-printed hollow skeleton, functionalised skin, and a custom tool for treatment delivery.

Researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed a groundbreaking biomedical robot designed to enhance the precision and safety of medical procedures. This innovative robot, which can be controlled remotely, features a flexible arm equipped with advanced sensors and imaging technology, allowing for real-time, high-resolution visualization inside the human body. The robot's capabilities include performing delicate tasks such as suturing, biopsy, and even navigating through complex vascular systems. It aims to reduce the invasiveness of surgeries, decrease recovery times, and minimize risks associated with human error. The technology has shown promising results in preclinical trials, with potential applications in various surgical fields, offering a new era in minimally invasive surgery.
