Company Gives MIS Tools a Makeover

FlexDex's platform technology precisely translates the surgeon’s hand, wrist, and arm movements.

By FlexDex Surgical12.11.15


FlexDex's core technology is the outcome of basic research and innovations in parallel kinematics, virtual center of rotation, and flexure mechanisms in the Precision Systems Design Lab at the University of Michigan. Professors Shorya Awtar (Mechanical Engineering) and James Geiger (Surgery), along with medical device entrepreneur Greg Bowles, co-founded FlexDex Surgical to translate this research into surgeon-friendly medical products.
