Name of Scheme

A shape sensing-based flexible surgical robot system for natural orifice transluminal surgery

Description

[Licensing negotiation in progress]

[Invitation for Expression of Interest- Deadline: 13 May 2026]

The Technology

To address the problems of restricted surgical maneuverability and limited instrument accessibility in natural orifice transluminal surgery, this series of inventions delivers a complete solution for precise surgical operation in the narrow confined space of luminal cavities based on a flexible robotic system. Integrated with preoperative planning and intraoperative real-time navigation, the system adopts master-slave teleoperation, high-precision shape and tactile sensing, and flexible manipulator system to conduct sophisticated surgeries, so as to enhance surgeons’ surgical proficiency.

Commercialization

The technology is now available for licensing on an exclusive basis. In order to ensure successful transfer of the technology portfolio to the society, we seek a licensee with demonstrated commercialization expertise, established distribution channels, and substantial R&D funding in the medical device industry. Previous or existing business involvement and experience in this area would be a plus.

Should you be interested in obtaining an exclusive license of the technology portfolio, please submit your business plan and the terms you are prepared to offer by returning the enclosed Term Sheet via email to the address set out below, no later than the date and time indicated.

All submissions must bear the following subject line: "Expression of Interest – A shape sensing-based flexible surgical robot system for natural orifice transluminal surgery Technology Portfolio".
