The technology of robotic drills has been combined with the familiarity of standard handheld medical drills to create the SMARTdrill, a handheld robotic drilling device designed to help surgeons eliminate plunge when drilling bone. The SMARTdrill’s Depth Measurement Technology measures drill bit depth in real time and knows when to stop drilling. The SMARTdrill’s vTorq™ Technology continuously senses drilling torque and displays corresponding imaging on a graphical user interface (GUI) screen, so surgeons literally have a visual picture of bone density as they drill. The innovative handheld robotic drill device features a proprietary gearbox, motor and sensor technology working together to deliver a first in orthopaedic medicine.
• Allows safe depth control
