What is
IntelliSense Drill Technology®?
There is now an innovative, patented, technology that assists surgeons in the drilling process that could change the standard of care for the better. It’s called, IntelliSense Drill Technology®. This innovative HandHeld Robotic technology uses multiple sensors to automatically stop the drilling process once bone has been penetrated. It senses depth and provides the surgeon with a precise and accurate depth measurement automatically so they can decide on a screw size. The IntelliSense Drill Technology® could improve outcomes, lower cost and save time in common orthopedic surgeries.
