Revolution in the OP: Moon Surgical uses AI-based technology

Laimgrubengasse 10, 1060 Wien, Österreich - A groundbreaking step in the surgical innovation! Moon Surgical, a pioneering company with roots in France and the USA, has received approval for its revolutionary technology Scopilot from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This was officially announced on March 19, 2025. Scopilot, supported by Nvidia Holoscan, is the first AI-based function that can easily be used on commercially available surgical robots to ensure an optimal view of surgeons during interventions. This new technology revolutionizes the way operations are carried out by significantly improving control, security and efficiency in the operating room, such as ots.at reported.

The functionality of Scopilot enables surgeons to precisely position the laparoscope without interrupting contact with the operating instruments. This not only promotes the surgical river, but also minimizes distractions. "Scopilot enables surgeons to control three instruments with only two hands and at the same time offers a safe field of vision that is of crucial importance during an operation," said Anne Osdoit, CEO from Moon Surgical. The Maestro system has already been used in numerous operations in over 1,100 cases in the USA and Europe, and the introduction of scopilot will significantly increase efficiency in the operating room, as well as Morningstar.com emphasized.

Technological advantages and future outlook

The Moon Surgical Maestro system, which was already approved by the FDA in June 2024, combines targeted sensors with AI to generate incomparable surgical data records. This technology not only supports the operating process itself, but also improves the entire perioperative workflow. "The software-defined platform from Moon Surgical has shaped the industry sustainably and now lead the development of next generation physical AI functions," emphasized Kimberly Powell, VP Healthcare at Nvidia. With Scopilot, Moon Surgical sets new standards in medical robotics and creates a networked, digital surgical environment of the future.
