The ROCSTAR Project is an innovative initiative focused on improving precision in robotic surgery. Supported by the Hazitek Program and co-funded by the Basque Government and the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) for the period 2021-2027, the project aims to transform the way submillimeter surgeries are performed robotically, thereby enhancing precision and safety.
The ROCSTAR Project aims to robotize sub-millimeter surgeries, enhancing precision to unprecedented levels. The project aims to develop advanced simulation models to analyze and minimize critical errors in robotic surgery, paving the way for safer and more efficient procedures. One of the primary focuses is creating advanced simulation models to study and understand critical precision errors in robotic surgeries. By examining how errors propagate and the impact of tolerances on surgical outcomes, the project will optimize robotic systems to minimize risks and improve the quality of surgeries overall.
