Medical device and robotic surgery history is heading to the Smithsonian’s Natural Museum of American History, in the form of a 1989 prototype of Robodoc, an early orthopedic surgical robot.
The Robodoc device was created for use in hip and knee replacement surgeries, the Smithsonian said, and its donation came along with a wealth of archival material.
