My bet is that the SPORT arms are not simple devices. Any effectors will be driven by whatever mechanism they currently utilize for the the basic tools thay have presented so far. Titan needs a top-notch instrument company willing to be betting for the long term that snake-arm effectors are going to be a hit.

Any major modification to the snake-arm mechanism, as it currently stands, the motors and cables that control it, and the manual controller hardware and software are all intertwined.

"Improvements" in SPORT manipulative ability will come with major generational versions of SPORT, not incremental improvements to existing units, in my opinion. That is why they need to get it right the first time it enters the market. This effector supplier (who remains secret) needs to be 1st class.
