AOT's CARLO-system (Cold Ablation Robot-Guided Laser Osteotome) works more precisely than a human being ever could. For that reason, it opens up the door to more gentle treatment possibilities, keeping bone tissue vital and intact at the site of the laser incision. The CARLO-system enables the direct collaboration of man and machine by means of a small, lightweight, and custom-designed tactile robotic arm, as well as navigation and control software and its corresponding hardware. All of these elements are combined in an ergonomic system, which fits easily into the operating room and allows the surgeon full control over this universal osteotomy device at any time. CARLO is thus the world's first medical, tactile robot that can cut bone without contact and with cold laser technology. The device allows the surgeon to perform bone operations with unprecedented precision, and in freely-defined, curved and functional sectional configurations, which are not achievable with conventional instruments.
