In the near future, NASA and other space agencies will send astronauts beyond Low Earth Orbit (LEO) for the first time in over fifty years.
rovers, defining their motion planning, and inventing a process where the rover's Sun detectors are used to determine its direction of travel.
However, the MIRA technology has the added benefit of performing operations autonomously, meaning that astronauts serving on the Moon and Mars could receive medical care without the need for a human surgeon."The Virtual Incision MIRA platform was designed to deliver the power of a mainframe robotic-assisted surgery device in a miniaturized size, with the goal of making RAS accessible in any operating room on the planet.
This will consist of writing software, configuring MIRA to fit inside an experiment locker, and testing the device to ensure it is rugged enough to survive being launched aboard a rocket and will function as needed in space. "The procedure went smoothly, and the patient is recovering well. I'm excited to play a part in taking the first steps toward increasing access to robotically assisted surgery, which has clear benefits for patients."
"These simulations are very important because of all the data we will collect during the tests," said Wagner in a Nebraska News release.
