2026: Product Announcement

In mid-March 2026, American researchers at Rowan University unveiled the Robossis Alpha platform, the world's first robotic surgical system designed to align long bones in fractures. It took about ten years to develop the advanced complex.

The project leader is Mohammad Abedin-Nasab, assistant professor of biomedical engineering at the Henry Rowan College of Engineering. The creation of the system is supported by the National Institutes, the National health care USA Science Foundation, the New Jersey Commission on Science, Innovation and Technology, and the New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development. To commercialize the platform, Abedin-Nasab founded Robossis, where he holds the post of CEO.

Experts note that with a fracture of a long bone, for example, a femur, it is incredibly difficult to return parts of it to its original position. At the same time, even a small deviation can lead to chronic pain or the need for repeated operations. Robossis Alpha robot is designed to solve these problems.

It is stated that the system in terms of the applied force is more than 10 times superior to other robotic complexes. At the same time, it is possible to track the position of bones in real time with submillimeter accuracy. Navigation based on artificial intelligence is implemented for optimal positioning. Another feature of Robossis Alpha, the developers call the unique arrangement of the levers, thanks to which a large surgical workspace is provided.

The commercial version of Robossis Alpha is funded by the Rowan Innovation Venture Fund and private investors including orthopaedic surgeons. The team expects to obtain regulatory approval to use the platform through 2028-2029.^[1]
