With you Mustang. Unless they were working together way in advance of the June 4th agreement announcement the submittal of HUGU, with Titan tech incorporated, seems rushed as hell to me. It’s be nice to know what IP was licensed.

This article sums up my opinion nicely. I’m pretty sure Medtronic is using Titan to keep Hugo development moving along as their own developers needed help while struggling with working remote. There’s probably not much more to it than that.

I agree. I think there is a decent chance there is another program in the works, which could be huge. I think that is the reason for the heavy redactions in the agreement. I also think there is a better chance at a Medtronic buyout if there is another program.
Not convinced they want enos though,
MacNally has said it’s separate from the Medtronic project.

Disagree but that is ok. Medtronic basically showed the same robot in their 2019 business day and their most recent reveal. If they hadn’t incorporated some of Titans ip in Hugo then what were they working on since 2019. I thinking having similar end effectors for both Hugo and Titan will help Expedite the Titan regulatory path bc that aspect will already be approved. I absolutely believe Hugo will some way incorporate the camera insertion tube (and it’s capabilities including illumination) into Hugo. I think its possible the hand pieces will also be involved. Having identical hand pieces for a surgeon that is interchangeable bt a single port and multi port system would be a huge plus.
