I'm so eternally grateful to be alive at a time where medical equipment like this exists.

The sequel to “they did surgery on a grape”

It’s awesome because you can even control the sensitivity levels of the arms, to make them even more precise than the natural hands of the doctor, while being handled by the skills of said doctor

Shout-out and prayers to the corns family, please be safe 🙏

They missed a golden opportunity to unveil this at the international Cornference

Does it require a PlayStation Network subscription to use online?

[cesarsalas]

Are we on the "the made surgery on a ..." trend again?

[kystrum_]

I’ll be impressed when it’s done on a mustard seed. 😂

And instead of your bill being 100k it will be 1.5 million

Didn't Dr. House use this to unbutton Camerons clothes.

"mr president, the 2nd food item has hit the surgery robot"

Finally a part 2 to the lineage of food surgery’s

[boooju]

what's next, surgery on a cranberry?

[m.t-thoughts]

The fact he holds it like pens must makes it feel incredible natural

[Pterified]

But you can only use it if you sign in with your PSN account.😅

That is technically a Waldo, not a robot. A Waldo only moves when and as the operator does. A robot can perform without an operator.

One glitch and you’re missing your stomach 😂

There’s a machine already like this. Maybe it’s different but it’s called Da Vinci robot. I was fortunate enough to see a gastric bypass. The machine cauterizes, staples, sews, cuts, and sews.
