"Since the inception of robotic surgery, the surgical console has been envisioned to be a site of integration - of robotic surgery, image-guided surgery, pre-operative planning & surgical rehearsal, and simulation, training & assessment. Any technology which brings together the real world of robotics and the 'virtual' world of simulation helps realize the revolution which robotic surgery promises."

Small on Footprint, Big on Features

 

Mimic has been developing simulation technology since 2001, and has collaborated with Intuitive Surgical® since 2003. Building on this partnership, the dV-Trainer™ delivers a feature-packed solution for robotic surgery training that fits on a desktop.

 

Accurate Robot Modeling

  • Realistic representation of da Vinci® workspace, foot pedals, and master controls
  • Precise modeling of robot kinematics and virtual instruments (created from the original da Vinci CAD files)

  • Accurate representation of EndoWrist® instruments and system icon display

Compact Hardware Platform

  • Tabletop-sized system for minimum space requirements and maximum mobility
  • High-definition 3D vision system with XGA resolution and more than 90 degree view angle
  • High fidelity force feedback for haptic effects

MSim™ Surgical Simulation Platform

  • Highly realistic training scenarios
  • Allows for creation of customized training protocols
