NaoTrac, the Fully-Autonomous Neuro-Navigation Robot

NaoTrac merges high-precision technology and surgeons experience to improve accuracy and result by streamlining surgical procedures and improving the learning curve equipped with Al, Machine Vision, and Robot-Assisted Surgery. Surgical navigation with non-contact registration, pre-operating planning prepara tion, and choosing the surgery pathway with a 3D vision for precise anatomical location NaoTrac can assist on variety of neurosurgical procedures, such as

  • Biopsy/Tumor Ablation
  • EVD
  • SEEG
  • ICH
  • SRF
  • DBS
  • Endoscope
  • Trigeminal Nerve
  • Targeted Deliverye

NaoTrac has been cleared by U.S. FDA, obtained CE mark and Taiwan FDA.

CLINICAL EVIDENCE

Acta Neurochirurgica (2022) 164:2385-2393

Pilot Study of a New Type of Machine Vision-Assisted Stereotactic Neurosurgery for EVD Placement

The humanclinical trials has proven that using Nao Trac in stereotactic cranial neurosurgery is feasible. Utlization of the surgical mbot provides high procedural accuracy and reduces surgical time. The preliminary result shows that the mean error was around 1.6mm at target points The mean angular deviation was about 1.9 degrees. The average patient registration time was 2.38 minutes.

EANS 2025 Annual Meeting Selected Digital Abstract

Utilizing Fiducial Markers for Imaging Recognition and Fusion in the Prone Position with the NaoTrac System

Neuronavigation improves precision in deep or minimally invasive neurosurgery, though image registration remains challenging in prone-position surgeries for posterior lesions

In this study, the Nao Trac system used four fiducial markers and CT imaging for registration.

  • Average registration time: 52 вес
  • Surface alignment accuracy: 0.37 mm
  • Mean operation time: 71 min

No perioperative or postoperative complications were reported.
All three patients showed improved clinical conditions after treatment.
