Mako SmartRobotics System

Stryker's orthopedic robotic-arm system combining haptic technology (AccuStop) with a preoperative CT-based surgical planner.

How it is used

Used in total and partial knee arthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty to position prosthetic components and preserve healthy tissue, through haptic feedback that constrains bone preparation to the surgical plan.
