The complete insertion snaking arms for sport starts at the trocart entry and go all the way to where the end effectors are connected, 100% of its length. This is a "complete" articulation using a push/pull multidirectional pulley ball. DaVinci has the same snaking arms, but at some point at around 4" from the distal end effectors, its a solid tube with no articulation, a 70% - 30% ratio. For some proceedures, this makes no difference but others you are limited or cannot perform at all. One would assume that when you go to market with a Platform, you want to offer the complete range of proceedure capabilities both from a patient and marketing perspective.
