RoSS - Robotic Surgical Simulator


RoSS

RoSS - Robotic Surgical Simulator , is a training system which uses virtual reality to introduce the user to the fundamentals of robot assisted surgery.
RoSS comes with a comprehensive curriculum to train for motor and cognitive skills required to operate a da Vinci surgical robot.
The similarity of the RoSS console to the master console of the da Vinci® Surgical System has been validated by scientific studies.
January 28, 2012: We are pleased to announce the release of an updated and improved version of the RoSS. The updates include several new software features and hardware options, such as:
  • Knot-Tying Module: An industry-first, physics-based knot-tying simulation, is now included.
  • Finger Clutch and Pedal Configuration: A new finger clutch and pedal system, matching da Vinci Si® model, is available.
  • HoST™ Prostatectomy Procedure Module:  Our novel HoST (Hands-on Surgical Training) technology, which allows novice surgeons to practice robot- assisted surgery in symphony with an expert robotic surgeon, is now available.
  • Enhanced Performance Metrics: The RoSS performance measurement system has been enhanced to include additional metrics and plots.
