Endocontrol specializes in robotic assistance for laparoscopic surgery. The company works with and for surgeons to develop “cobots” (collaborative robots) for laparoscopic procedures.

Although laparoscopic surgery has many benefits for the patients (minimally invasive procedure associated with less scarring and less pain, shorter operating time, improved recovery, etc.), it is technically more difficult for surgeons and potential complications may limit its applications.

For this very reason, Endocontrol develops and distributes a range of products aiming to aid the surgeon in minimally invasive surgery: VIKY EP, a motorized endoscope positioner for laparoscopy, VIKY UP, a motorized uterus positioner, and JAIMY, the first articulated robotized instrument for 5-mm incisions.
